We can't help but be excited, encouraged, and nothing short of beaming proud parents when we see the amazing progress Victoria has made over the past year. Here's a breakdown of the high points as they were at the end of the year:
She can count to 13
She can sing her abc's mostly
She recognizes all upper-case and lower-case letters, can tell you what a letter is, and if you ask her to find a letter, she can identify it that way.
She knows the colors red, yellow, blue, green, purple, black, white, gray, pink, brown, orange.
She sings Itsy Bitsy Spider, Row, Row, Row Your Boat, Happy Birthday, Rock-a-bye baby, and Patty-cake.
Her vocabulary is great - she knows please, thank you, excuse me, bless you, and our latest, "may I have it, please?" :)
She's also begun to recognize individual items and their place "daddy's toothbrush", "blue car", and can count things "three books", "two shoes".
Physical skills are a little on the uncoordinated side (thanks to mommy, I'm sure!) but she attempts to throw a ball, can't catch, doesn't really try to catch yet. Can jump and get both feet off the ground, and has started trying to jump down the stairs (holding hands, of course).
She's getting more picky about what she will and won't eat - she went to being the veggie queen to not eating any (not even frozen peas - which were right up there with blueberries!). She still loves fruit - craisins, raisins, grapes, apple, oranges, blueberries, etc.
Meal staples have become mac&cheese, turkey hot dogs, chicken fingers, and Gerber ravioli for lunch and dinner. Ah, well - at least she still loves dairy products, and loves her Flinstone vitamin as well!
