18 months ago today was March 7, 2008. Our precious Elliana was entered the world and captured our hearts. How is it possible that she is already 1.5 years old? Sigh. She continues to be SUPER SUPER busy and um, curious. She is into EVERYTHING, particularly that which she KNOWS she shouldn't be. Which is all the more reason to LOVE her.
Yesterday, we were at Brown's for ice cream, etc. and I leaned on my Mom as I was holding Ellie and said "My Mommy". Ellie, literally took both her hands and used them to pull my head off my Mom's shoulder. She kept patting my chest saying "My Mom, My Mom, My Mom". It was soooo cute!
Words she can say:
Mommy/Mama/Mom/My Mom
Daddy
Gah-Gah (aka Gabi)
Daisy
Good
Uh-huh (aka Why, YES I agree completely with that lovely idea)
Ease (aka Please)
Atch (aka Watch- pointing to the DVD player in van)
Ellie
Jes (aka Yes)
Side (aka outside)
Hot
Dis (aka this)
Das (aka that)
Eat
Baby Signs "more"
She knows what she wants, and how she wants it. She communicates clearly by shaking her head "no" when she doesn't want something, and pointing and saying "dis" when she does.
In other news, Gabi starts FIRST grade tomorrow!! I can't believe it! Again, another example of how quickly time flies. Sigh. She is more than ready, and I'm thrilled for her. It's just hard to let her go.

OH that just grabbed my heart (MY mom!). I am STILL waiting for AJ to call me ANYTHING! how sweet BOTH your girls are!
I miss my girls!
So very cool..... I too wish that these sweet babes wouldn't grow up so fast either!!!
Justin was just asking me when Owen was going to talk. He liked hearing Ellie's list of words. He insists that Owen is already saying "HI"
Wow, that's quite a list. I'm still waiting for Jeremiah to start jabbering. The time surely goes by fast. Enjoy your time with your girls!
