Ellie is...Sooooo BIG!!!! 10 months!

 Everyone knows the kids saying, though some of you may not want to admit it, where you say, in my case, "Ellie is......." and then it is followed by "Soooo Big!!" in an obnoxiously high voice and you teach your child to raise both of their hands up during the last part to emphasize how big they are. Well not to brag, but I literally said this whole bit twice to Ellie, acting it all out, and the third time she raised her hands as soon as I said "Ellie is..." I'm not sure if I should be proud or terrified of her quick learning abilities. Now she does it on command every time and it is her favorite game that we play. Oh boy, what are we in for? It's these moments that really make me realize that she is growing into a beautiful and bright little girl---all too quickly!

Here are some other things that Ellie has learned to love at 10 months:
- She loves to be upside down
- She loves to be tossed around by daddy
- She loves to play with Oliver (she takes his toys right out of his mouth...and he lets her!)
- She still loves bath time!
- She loves finger foods
- She loves juice (or what she thinks is juice-mostly water)
- She loves pop up books
- She loves to say Mama, Dada, and other gibberish (she's a big talker)
- She loves to stand and walk around while holding on to things-still not doing the real thing yet
- She loves clapping and waving
- And most of all, she loves to dance! She will literally dance to any beat she can hear, even if you are singing the abc's or just simply tapping your knee with your hand!
