Elli is 20 months old today and growing like a weed! It is hard to imagine that she will be 2 in just 4 months. I wish time would slow down a bit! Elli continues to be a great sleeper for us and has been averaging 12 to 12.5 hours a night. She still takes 1 nap a day for about 2 hours or more sometimes. We have finally noticed some progress with her hair growth; however, it is not quite long enough for a ponytail or pigtails. She is definitely in the awkward stages with her hair, as it doesn't lay flat, but is relatively curly. In the mornings her hair looks as if she stuck her hand in a socket and we generally have to be creative when trying to tame it!
Elli seems to be into everything and continues to enjoy all her girly things- make-up, purses doing hair, jewelry, etc. Elli loves all animals, enjoys sesame street, and has shown favoritism towards "Snow White." She is also into trucks, buses, planes, and tractors! Speaking of trucks, we took her to "Touch A Truck" this weekend. We went to a place where there were various kinds of trucks, tractors, and buses. All the kids were able to get up on the vehicles and play in them. Elli's favorite was the bus as you will see in the pictures below.
She didn't want to wear her fire hat, so she made Scott.

This is what Connor did during "Touch a Truck"Enjoying the bus.....
****************************************We ventured out to a different park on Sunday and I had to get a picture of Elli before we left. She insisted on wearing these things.....
What can I say....this girl likes to accessorize. We were able to convince her that she didn't need the dog, sunglasses, or purse at the park, but we had no luck with the apron. Yep, that's right....she wore the apron the whole time at the park.

she wanted to hold "Bubba" which we gladly let her.
Just a few more random pictures....
Our friend Kelli came over to play on Monday afternoon. Notice the earrings in the above pictures. Elli has been really focused on earrings lately. Don't worry....she won't be getting those ears pierced for quite some time.
Connor hanging out while we play.
Did I mention in my last blog that he is out of his newborn clothes and sleepers. He is wearing 0-3 month and 3 month clothes and sleepers. Growing so quickly, but he is back to not sleeping much at night...booo
