PICTURES from the last few months are after all the text!!
It's been WAY too long since the last Ellie update! I found this in my email under "drafts" from February 9th...
****************
Ellie had her 2-year checkup on Wednesday. She is still off the charts (100th percentile) for both height and weight!
She has started asking questions, like "Whacha doin' Daddy" and "Where you at"! I guess grammar rules come later!
She loves to sing and do the motions for "Wheels on the Bus" and "I've Got the Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy Down in My Heart". She can sing "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" and "ABCs" by herself.
****************
As for now... She has started to ask "Why?". Uh oh!! Those who knew me as a kid understand the years of parental torture that can come from this development! But her favorite question is still, "Where did you buy this from?" and "Who gave me that?". The answer to the last one is almost always, "Grandma." She has started to assume that everthing comes from Grandma!
A quick recap of the last few months...
NEW CAMERA! for Abbey!!
PLANTING! with Arden and Karen in our plot in the Community Garden.
SNOW! Trip to Tahoe was the first real time to play in the snow!
BLAST FROM THE PAST! 70's Costume Party in Vegas for Chris!
NEW FISH! Ellie got a blue beta and named him Penson. She loves to say, "How's Penson doing?" She had a great time setting up his "house" and putting in his "toy".
RUGBY! Chris has started playing Rugby and just returned from an MBA Rugby tournament at Duke University. Chris won MVP of the tournament for his team!
MUSIC CLASS! Ellie loves it! "Circle to the left old brass wagon, you're the one my darling!"
BABY BOY! We are expecting a baby boy somewhere near July 31 to August 5.
SPRING BREAK! San Diego Zoo, big bike in Santa Barbara, playing in the pool, sea lions, Disneyland!
EASTER PARTY! Chris planned and executed an Easter brunch for the Business School! It turned out really great!
TWIN BED! Ellie moved from a toddler bed to a twin bed!
PIZZA PARTY and PETER PAN! Arden and Ellie just had a pizza party last night!
TALKING BACK! "Stop that Mommy. You DON'T say that Mommy. That's unacceptable."
POWERFUL KICKS! I can now actually see my tummy move when the baby kicks!
Here are some pics from the last few months - in reverse order!
