 valerie -- April 17th, 2011Elise is becoming quite the little animal lover. She is not afraid to hug, tough, feed or otherwise interact with any creature she comes across. We went on a working sheep ranch tour this past weekend and Elise was in hog heaven. With real pig-a-lets even. She could not get enough of the baby lambs [...] valerie -- October 17th, 2010Elise comes into the sleeping room this morning and tells me “Mama, night night” and proceeds to climb up into Maia’s bed. A few minutes later she announces “I come down!” As she reaches the bottom, she loses her footing and I hear a small thud followed by “I fall down!” and turn to see [...] valerie -- June 24th, 2010And so it begins. Stella was playing with a toy on the changing table and Elise comes charging in, sees Stella and yells: “MY zhu-zhu pet! MY zhu-zhu pet!” She then takes her toy and charges out of the room again. I expect to hear a whole lot more “my” from now on. But on [...] valerie -- June 18th, 2010At 21 months and counting, Elise is having a language explosion. She’s putting together two-three word sentences. And this morning as I was pouring a cup of brow elixir for John and myself she came up with a new one: “Happy coffee (caw-caw) baby!” That’s my girl. john -- May 11th, 2010Last night, Elise was sporting a lovely red mark across her face. Inquiries with Maia revealed some sort of incident involving a shoe, but, details were hardly forthcoming, and no one involved could care less about it. But, I can’t help but see a budding mobster ready to make her mark on the kids at [...] valerie -- November 3rd, 2009Elise took a halting half step tonight. Maybe more of a foot adjustment, but still. The idea that she can remain upright and move is beginning to solidify. She just loves to stand and today she was letting go and holding an independent stance for as long as her baby attention span lets her. She [...] valerie -- November 1st, 2009We did something today that I have been remiss in doing lately. We went to the park. My favorite park for little crawlers and just standers and the big sister that travels with them. It was a beautiful day for it. Sunshine, cool breeze, temperate weather. The time was right…after lunch so it was very [...] valerie -- October 19th, 2009Today Elise managed a neat new trick. As she was playing with the (for lack of a better title) Tupperware drawer she pulled herself up to her feet to look inside and see what she was going to pull out. She then took note of a shoe she wanted to hold and instead of dropping [...] valerie -- September 24th, 2009Lucky for you, I’ve dropped the teething ball and Elise popped just about three teeth at the same time. She now has four upper and two bottoms. Yes. Just enough to really get you when she bites you. She’s working on more bottoms, but man. She’s loving crunching up crackers. I started them on Goldfish–The [...] valerie -- July 19th, 2009Elise has wheels. Her crawling skills have improved and she’s added the effortless move from crawling to sitting and back again. She can tear through the house and end up–who knows where? I pulled out the little walker cart to give her something to climb on and she’s enjoying that. We also played a little [...] |
