While you were away...

Things Elliana did today when I turned my back:

Elliana put a marshmallow in Andy's mouth. (I got it out right away, but he had the biggest smile I have ever seen him give.)

I asked Elliana to help fold the laundry; she grabbed an arm full and headed for the washing machine. She shoved them in and shut the door.

I turned around to get a knife to cut the watermelon into smaller pieces and Elliana decided she didn't need to wait and dug right in.

2 Months

Andrew had his 2 month check-up today. He is weighing in at 13 pounds 2 ounces. That is right, he is 85% for his chunkiness. He is 22.5 inches long, a little more in the average range. Andy has been given the official stamp of good health and I was told that his pooping should slow down soon. He still is going about 16-18 times a day! We will see if is really does slow down.
Andy can smile and looks adorable when he does. He has laughed out loud 3 times in the past two days. It is a sweet little laugh. He is pretty good at holding his head up too. That is about all that he can do at this time.

Elliana say hi to everyone and wants you to know that she is a good big sister and loves her brother very much, too much sometimes.

Funny Little Girl

Here are a couple of stories from Elliana's life:

Elliana said she was hungry and needed something to eat. When I asked her what she wanted she said, "food". My mom will think that is pay back, because that was my answer for years.

About ten times a day, Elliana will look out the window and say "hop, hop". She is looking for a rabbit that lives under a tree. It is hardly out since we have been having a lot of rain, which makes Elliana really mad. As soon as Chris walks in the door, she asks for him to take her out to check and see if she can find another bunny.

We went to a couple's home that we did not know, and within 5 minutes of being there, Elliana had taken off her shirt and as working on her pants.

Elliana is starting to get into dancing. She is not very good and basically dances like a robot. I am working on getting some video.
