Denali @ 2 Years

Denali had her 2nd birthday in March, I'm a little behind on writing this post.
At Denali's 2 year appointment she weighed 21 lbs and is 33 inches long. She passed the "Important Milestones" test like a champ. Her lowest score was problem solving which told me that I help her too much, we've been working on it a lot since then.

Some things about Denali @ 2 years:
-Denali loves princesses, as any little girl should! She insists on wearing her "Cindalala" dress everyday. We probably change her clothes 3 or 4 times a day. It drives me crazy but of course I still bought her two more for her Birthday.
-Her favorite TV show is Daniel Tiger. She can sing most of the songs by herself and even makes up her own actions to them. We had to tone down the amount of TV time because it was getting a little out of hand. Now it's a rare and special occasion when we gets to watch "D.T.", as Andrew would say, which makes her like it even more!
-Denali can count to 15, although, it usually ends up being "fourteen, fourteen, fifteen!".
-Denali can tell you what a circle, triangle, square (on a good day), heart, and diamond are. She can also recognize the numbers 1,2,3 and the letters A, B, C, and D are. We still have a long way to go before kindergarten but we're working on it.
-Denali's favorite songs to sing are Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Let It Go, the Alphabet, Doggy in the Window, and... well really any song she knows and you want to sing with her! Her uncle Jake plays that piano and sings with her all the time. Hopefully she wants to continue as she gets older.
-Denali is still a very happy girl most of the time. She's very tenderhearted.
-I'd say there is a 3 way tie between Denali's favorite activities: swimming, swinging, and sliding.
-Denali's favorite foods (only food she'll eat really) are chicken nuggets (and "wanch"), fruit, and PB&J "samiches".
-She still has a very hard time throwing or catching a ball, so that is our next goal!
