Ella is 19 months old today!

Ella is 19 months old today! Ella's vocabulary has grown so much. She loves trying to say new words, or learn what something is called. It seems like she's quizzing us, asking "this?" over and over again, pointing to new objects. She has new alphabet magnets for the refrigerator, and will even sing parts of her ABCs. She is learning her colors and particularly loves to say "yellow".

Lately she has been so active, and really loves going to playgrounds (which she gets to do at school a lot) and playing in the yard.

She has been practicing how to do a somersault, and loves to run around with Griffin. She especially loves to be chased and tickled or swung around in circles. She is always asking for more tickles, more swinging, more running and chasing, more singing, more dancing...more, more, more! We love playing with our little cutie. It seems though that Ella has taken a slight turn into the land of "NO", and will emphatically tell us "no", when we're not used to that word coming out of her mouth! Although she likes to say "no" a lot now, she also has become even more affectionate, and will say "hug" and flop onto us for a wonderful hug, or will say "kiss" and pucker up her little lips - so incredibly sweet. We love our little girl!
