Progress

Since 17, 18 month old, Abby started to point with one finger (instead of her whole hand).
She knows how to put her bath squirt toy under water and then out to squeeze the water out.
She can stack 5 or 6 blocks.
She can crawl up and down the stairs.
She can mop the floor or wipe the table (and her hands and mouth).
She can use tools...use a spoon or bring a bench to get higher.
She can feed herself with spoon.
She can buckle herself in.
She can take off her jacket.
She can do simple puzzles.
And she is running/fast walking and climbing.
She knows a lot of body parts.
She speaks a lot of words and signs. She can have a conversation with me.
She can do different gestures according to the lyric of the song or rhyme.
She is doing a little pretend plays.
And she obeys my commands and directions.

I just all of a sudden realize how much progress she made in a year and a half. "Yesterday" she was just a newborn who can't do anything.

But Nick and I still thinks she whines way too much.
