Sometimes she amazes me...

I haven't written about Alyssa's development in a while so I thought I would. It really amazes me how much she knows as a 26 month old. I just listened to her through the monitor while she is in bed counting to 15. She started counting to 10 about 2 months ago but she recognized all her numbers and letters very early on at 19 months. At 20 months she knew all her shapes and colors. At about 21 months she recognized her name when you write it down for her and while you write it, she will even tell you what letter comes next. Her new thing these days is counting things. Today she counted her toes. It was so cute - she counted them and then said "Mommy, 10 toes!" She counts things when we are out and she counts things in her books. My little princess is growing up so fast and learning like a sponge and talking and communicating so well. I am truly proud of her!!!
