Ellie received a few vaccines today and boy is this kid smart. The minute we sat her up and the nurse cleaned her arm off with the rubbing alcohol, she knew what was about to happen and was not thrilled with me. Poor kiddo. She cried but was still a good little trooper. Abby was with us and when Ellie was all dressed, Abby came up and gave her a big hug. She told Ellie that everything was ok and that she was a very brave little girl. Talk about tugging on my heartstrings! If only they were this nice to each other all of the time!

Ellie is growing and changing everyday. With every week that passes, Ellie is talking more and more. Her vocabualry has grown considerably and we can actually understand more of what she says. She is starting to form three to four words sentences but also seems to understand more of what we say to her. Ellie is still working on getting her teeth those first molars and her little canines just seem to be taking their time to grow in. Ellie is also starting to show some interest in the potty! Good Lord I cannot wait to start potty training her. Thanks to her sister, I have a feeling this time around will be quick. Ellie looks up to Abby and wants to do everything she does. Lets hope this applies to using the potty as well!
