Fun, fun, fun

So I know I haven't been good about posting lately, but it's because I've been busy having fun with Ellie! She is in such a sweet, fun stage right now -- she "jibber-jabbers" all the time (pretty much from the minute she wakes up, to the minute she goes to sleep), she seems to do something new every time I turn around (the latest is learning how to roll a ball), and she is just generally happy and excited about life! So fun!


She has definitely figured out where Damian is during the day. As soon as we walk anywhere near his office, she starts yelling "dada, dada, dada" and waves like crazy. It's so sweet. I try not to disturb him too much, but it's hard to resist when his little girl wants to see him so badly! She got to sit in Daddy's chair the other day and she looked like such a big girl.

In addition to being super-fun, Ellie is super-assertive these days. She's not afraid to wrestle something out of your hands if it's what she wants...including my huge Baylor cup! For some reason, she LOVES drinking out of the huge straw...which is no problem when she remembers to close her lips before swallowing. Most of the time, the water just ends up all over her and the floor.
