Pismo and Elena - Saturday Night Fever

Star in Your Own JibJab! It's Free!

Picasso

Elena loves to play with her friends but I think she may be a little TOO willing to please. In this instance, the moms were chatting on the couch, but when we popped over to check on the too-quiet kids, Noah and Haley (each about 2 1/2 years old) had already made a masterpiece of young Elena. :)

It's safe to say there was a lot of laughter in the room following.

Oh and p.s. The pens were washable - it all came off with water and a paper towel.... :)

Summer Lovin'

Elena LOVES the outdoors and in this instance, loved being at her friend, Olivia's, second birthday party. The kids were a riot playing with the 'mister' (See photo).

Elena is also learning her letters. She can sing most of the ABCs and can identify about ten letters when shown. She and Daddy have been working on them and the other morning, they brought Mama breakfast in bed (Elena carried the napkin) and were both so excited to showcase her new tricks. We'd test her on the letters and then she'd turn it around and ask us, "Whas dis?" What a smart little cookie.

Potty Time!

Elena is newly interested in the potty and says, 'pappers' when she goes near it. Translation: Take off my diapers. The other day, she sat there for about five minutes and kept getting up and looking in to see if there were any eh, hem... results.

So far, nothing, but we know she'll tell us when it's time to potty train and we're not going to push it. It it's pretty cute in the meantime though.
