Ellen just amazes me every day!!! She's been waving for some time now and this weekend she started clapping and showing that she recognizes words. I asked her if she wanted water when she wasn't looking at me and she turned her head toward me with her mouth open. Then today I asked her where the moon, caterpillar, sun, and butterfly were in her Hungry Caterpillar book and she pointed at all of them. Well, she didn't actually point with one finger, but put her hand on the right picture each time. Wow!!!
This weekend we went to the cabin again. John got a new toilet and a water heater installed, Claire got the lawn mowed, and I installed all the insulation we had. Ellen took pretty good naps but her night sleep was NOT good and Saturday night she had a full 2hour night waking!!! Argh!! I think she's starting her 2-1 transition and it's not going as smoothly as I pictured it... of course. It's not too bad though and I *think* I have figured out my strategy, so all that's left is putting it into action and making it work.
We also put an air mattress in her play room and put some pillows on it for her to play on. She LOVED it. She was climbing all over it and throwing herself down and just romping all over. She had SO much fun!!
And I'm so excited about the new baby too. With Ellen I think I had no idea what was coming and I was excited to hold her yes, but looking back I think I was more excited to just not be pregnant anymore. This time I am just so excited about having the baby on the outside and getting to know him!!! There's not much time left... I'm already 22 weeks!! Where has the time gone????
