How Ellie has changed in the past month:
- Ellie still takes two naps a day, though it is getting harder and harder to get her down for them both. She is at that tricky age where one nap isn't enough, but (she thinks) two might be too many.
- Sleeping well at night, except for when molars are pushing in.
- Still eight teeth that are visible, although the two top first molars have broken through.
- Favorite foods: Indian food (Ellie's absolute favorite), salmon, Goldfish crackers, any and all veggies or fruits.
- Ellie can climb up her inside climber/slide and go down the slide all by herself!
- She helps get dressed and undressed by pulling her shirt on/off and sticking her arms through the sleeves.
- She knows so many words/directions. Here are just a few: Pat the dog/cat/Kip/Basty/Moxie; Give it to Mama/Daddy; Come here; Where's my nose, chin, cheeks, eyes, mouth, glasses; Go get your coat; Look out the window; Where's Jamison? (looks out front window at neighbor's house); Let's go outside (runs to front door).
- She hasn't added many words to her spoken vocabulary, but she makes tons of new babbling sounds. She can now say Mama, Dada, ball (ba-ba), all done (ahh-unn), Ellie (ehh-yee), uh-oh.
Events of the past month:
- First trip to the dentist. Everything looks great, though Ellie currently has a bit of a cross-bite.
- Sliding on the big slide at the park all by herself!
- Easter egg hunting.
- Staying with Hailey and Jamison while Mama went to a doctor appointment.
- Dance class!
Upcoming events:
- Heading out to Idaho with Mama later this week.
- Heading to Kansas the first weekend in May.
