Ella runs...and we follow

Ella has offically become an active toddler. She runs around and around and loves when we chase her. She is also loving to give hugs. Ella loves going to the nursery at church. She says byeeee as we leave and runs with a big smile to come to us after service. Ella did really well on the trip to Las Vegas to visit Aunt Lori. She loved seeing all of the people and the lights. Ella eats more and more big girl food. Yesterday she only had one jar of baby food, everything else was big girl food! Ella now has 10 teeth and loves to show them off. We are still working on a bigger vocabulary, but she is trying hard to say more words. She says hiii and byeee byee, bie (bites), wuff (dog), ohohoh (monkey), baa (baby). The rest of her words are mubles, but she knows what she is saying. When we ask her to show us something she holds it up and if we tell her to bring it to us she will. If we tell her it is time for night night she goes up to her bed.Ella also has a new game she loves....putting on mommy and daddy's shoes! We love watching her grow and also loves to sit and talk about how far she has come. We can't go out without being told how beautiful she is. She has made us realize that it is more important to be at home and playing with her than running around. Ella is the light of our life and we are thankful everyday that we get to be her parents.
