Ella Happenings

Just wanted to make some quick notes on Ella related stuff that I want to be sure to remember:

Her favorite words are: "No"; "More" (which she pronounces "Moe"); and "Hi."

She pronounces "hungry" as "hun-gee." It's adorable!

Ella is an Elmo addict. She only wants to watch Elmo--not any other cartoon or even any other section of Sesame Street. It's Elmo's World or nothing at all.

She is starting to sing along when we sing to her. Her favorite song is "Bye-bye Binky." (An Elmo song of course). Mentioning this song reminds me that she is also a binky addict. She pronounces it "bebe" and she treats it as precious as a baby.

She also loves Jewel's "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" which she considers her and daddy's song. She insists he is there with her, holding and dancing with her, whenever we play it. (It's adorable, but Mama C wants to know why she doesn't have a song with Ella).

She sleeps in her crib for a couple of hours or so each night and then ends up in bed with Mama. Mama acts annoyed in front of other people, but secretly loves it.

Daddy trying to entice Ella to sleep in her crib.

Her best friend at daycare is Cooper. She is obsessed with a baby there named Anna. She loves babies in general and always points them out to me whenever we come across one.

Ella can now open doors, including the front door and the sliding door screen. So, we're on lock down most of the time.

She has an extensive vocabulary and is a little spit-fire. We wouldn't have it any other way!
