The summer flew by and I haven't taken as many pictures as I should have! Here is a quick update of what Ellie has been up to since she has turned 1!! Ellie is 34 inches tall- growing like a weed- she is pretty heavy too. We go back to the doctor in December so I'm not sure of the exact measurements or percentile right now, but compared to her little friends she is pretty tall and wearing 24 months in most stuff; 18 months in the rest. Ellie loves to play with her dolls, crawl through her tunnel, play in her big play house, read books out loud, sing, dance, talk, talk on the phone, wear bracelets and shoes, and go on walks. She is pretty timid and not at all daring- we think this is wonderful. She is definitely a little girl and can be so delicate about some things...she is such a little darling doll. However, I have experienced a few temper tantrums lately! All in all, I feel very lucky to have such a neat, funny and intelligent little person in my life.
Rob and Emily took Elisabeth to her 1st Texans game!! She looks so cute in her little jersey! Rob said she made it until around the end of the 3rd quarter! I was impressed. I think Rob and Emily are really brave and sweet to take her to a game especially when it was pouring rain that day.
So adorable!
Elisabeth has been trying new foods and so far has been doing really well at eating a variety of foods. Occasionally she will show preference for a food but most of the time she is super easy going about it.

Ellie loves to sing and dance in the car! She still uses her pacifier especially if she is getting sleepy like she was here. She is still smiling though, can you tell?

We had a great visit with my sorority sister Meghan- she came to visit from Las Vegas. I think she was pretty smitten with Ellie and vice verse!

Ellie and her friends from the left, Truett Borel (10 months) and Colton & Jackson Smyre (almost 18 months). We all had so much fun at Cathy and Ted's visiting- the kids got along great- Truett should be running around with them in no time!!

Stay tuned for more pictures and updates!!
