Only thing I remember DD did not do early was rolling. I remember us waiting anxiously for her to roll and the day she turned 5mo she learned to roll on her right side and 2 weeks later on her left. She actually could sit by herself before roll on both sides. We also had a 11mo old baby having terrible two's...
We got fridge magnets when she started walking bit over 10mo and she was amazed with the fact that they stay on the fridge door. She walked around the apartment for a week trying to get them to stick on other places. She did the same thing with her wall stickers and seemed puzzled for a while why do the magnets only stick on the fridge and dishwasher. It was lot of fun to look at her.
Now at 27mo her puzzle building abilities are not comparable to any other child I have seen. She also constantly surprises us with her understanding about reading. She does not read although she knows that letters makes sounds, what is the direction of reading, she can tell what letters word start with and has sight words. Few times we have not been sure how she was able to figure out what a sign said but at this point we do not believe she reads and make explanations for her LOL
On saturday we walked on the airport and there was a coffee shop. DD has never been in one or seen us carrying a paper coffee cup as we make our own coffee at home. She pointed the huge "coffee" sign from the far and told me there is coffee. We explained it to our self that she must have smelled the coffee from far away and that is the reason she knew the sign said coffee:) The weirdest thing is that we do not call coffee "coffee" as our home language is not english. Then the next day she was drinking from my husband coffee cup which has a text saying "I'm crabby before I get my coffee" she claimed it said crabby where it actually said coffee? I think she is using some of her reading knowledge to guess what words say and she might get lucky sometimes.
