Tickle me, Lala.

Elena's toe surgery was without a doubt, more traumatic for Mommy than for her. We expected the day to be a little rough, but she was so good. We propped her up on the couch in front of endless epsiodes of Caillou with popsicles and saltines at her disposal. She is now on the mend and we hope to be issue-free for awhile.

Elena is very funny these days, full of new sentences that have as many as seven words. Her loves include:
  • Making us laugh;

  • Pretty dresses (seen here in Isabel's flower girl dress from our wedding);

  • Being tickled and read to; and

  • Her babies or any blankie.

And lately, Elena is very possesive of me. It's very sweet and any time she is nervous or shy, she'll make sure everyone is aware that I am HER Mommy. I can't lie, I kind of love it.


We met Elena's beautiful new cousin {once removed}, Jake today and she was very happy to 'hold it.' She liked the baby and talked about him a lot in the car ride home. She's still our baby though. Where does the time go?
