What a change in her hair! That's one of the first things that comes to my mind when I see these pictures. She is definitely not lacking hair. It's so crazy to think that about 2 years ago we were getting ready to start the in vitro process. I don't think I truely believed it would work, not the first time at least. The Lord sure proved me wrong. I'm so grateful He did. Ellie fits in to our family perfectly. She has quite the personality. She loves when her daddy comes home from work in the morning and can hardly wait for him to shower/change out of his work clothes before attacking him. She chases him around most mornings. She has her little 1 year old temper that is very evident already, especially when she doesn't get what she wants (ie the cell phone, computer, camera, etc). She loves mimicking us when we make noises, she loves giving hugs to her stuffed animals and our legs (while we're standing up), and kisses to everything, books, bears, dolls, except her parents! She will give us kisses at night when she's really tired and forgets I think! She is getting her 4th tooth on bottom and has 2 on top. She weighed 22.6 pounds and was 29 inches while we wrestled her to lay still tonight. She started walking almost 2 weeks ago and LOVES it. She still usually takes 2 naps a day, though I see that may not last too much longer (boo hoo). She loves eating the paint off her crib. I finally taped the guards to it tonight so she can't pull them off anymore, hopefully. At least the paint doesn't have lead in it! I'm really thankful that Ellie is a happy girl. She usually has a smile on her face and loves to laugh. We love chasing her around the house and eating her up. I can't say enough about the joy she has brought to our life. We LOVE LOVE LOVE Ellie.
