Adriana Leigh Herman is 20 Months Old

Adriana continues to be her happy, friendly self.  She's has had a little trouble with sleeping this past month.  When I went back to work after Spring Break, she started having some separation anxiety.  Naps became difficult.  She would sleep for half an hour, and then wake up screaming.  She would then fall back asleep once someone would hold her to read, etc., but only sleep when being held.  As soon as she was put down, she was wide awake again.  This gradually seeped into nighttime behavior as well.  We've been working on it, and it has gotten a lot better this week.  Today she took a good nap, woke up happy, and asked to go to bed tonight.

Adriana now knows all of her basic colors (red, yellow, blue, green, orange, purple, black, white, brown, gray, and pink).  She knows 20 letters (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, K, L, M, O, P, R, S, T, U, X, Z).  Sometimes she knows V and Y as well.  As far as shapes go, she knows and says circle, heart, and star.  She will point to triangles and squares when asked, but doesn't say the words yet.

She is "reading" more books.  In addition to Llama Llama Red Pajama, she will fill in some words for Green Eggs and Ham, The Cat in the Hat, Llama Llama Misses Mama, and If You Give a Mouse a Cookie.

We are so proud of our little girl!
