Ellen is a very busy 17-month-old! She's constantly on the go, which is fun, but can also be tiring for her adult caregivers. :)
What Ellen is up to these days:
- Running (usually laps around the house)
- Walking backwards
- Spinning around in circles
- More dancing
- Bowing (usually after a dance performance)
- Playing ring around the rosie
- Stringing together more words to make sentences (e.g., "I see Elmo," "I see paci,", etc.)
- Continuously adding to her vocabulary - recent favorites include "saw-bees" (strawberries), "Berp" (Bert), "whoa," and "suh-pize" (surprise - not sure where that one came from)
- Giving mom and dad lots of snuggles
- Toting Ernie everywhere she goes
17 months old and very happy!
EVB loves to arrange all of her "babies" on the steps. (Ernie is in her left hand.)
Ernie is allowed to join Ellen at mealtime, but after a few messing encounters and subsequent washings, he isn't allowed to sample her food ... so, Ellen will periodically remind Ernie to "sit" as she munches away.
Being so busy takes its toll. :)
