It's hard to believe that Ella is almost 19 months old. Brad took her for her checkup a week and a half ago, and she was 33 1/2 inches (90th percentile) long, weighed 26 lbs. 10 oz (80th percentile) and her head continues to be off the chart. She is amazing. We can see new things connecting in her brain everyday!
We went to visit my parents this weekend in Savannah. While we were there, Ella learned many new words, including: noodle (the pool kind), goggle, brilliant (like the Guiness commercials), Dixie (the dog), Andrew (my brother) and Uncle. She has even begun talking up a storm, of course we can only understand a little bit of what she's saying. But, she's trying to tell us something.
They always say that you should cherish the time with your kids while they are little, enjoy every moment. But, it's not until you begin to look back that you realize just how far they've come. What a joy, we are loving every minute of it.
