Ellie's favorite part was the candy cane treat. Only 31 days 'till Christmas! Yes, the countdown has begun.
And I can't believe it's Ellie's 3rd Christmas!
This year will certainly be the best one yet though.
Here is a little preview of the excitment that will ensue over opening presents.
Thank you Aunty Michelle, Uncle Paul and cousin Jules for Ellie's birthday baby and a wonderful preview of Christmas!
Ellie is certainly starting to make her preferences and tastes known.
And her favorite number is definitely
F O U R ! !
Actually, I feel like Ellie is on her way to first grade in this photo! She looks like such a big kid!When you asked her how old she is today she says "2 old". Too cute is more like it
First order of business for the birthday girl was preschool. She was very excited when the entire class sung her Happy Birthday! Teach Betsy is one of Ellie's very favorite people!
The day continued with lots of treats and party hats at Ma-Mop's house.
Happy Birthday baby girl . . . I mean BIG girl!
It's amazing to me that just 4 months ago we had Ellie evaluated by an early intervention specialist because we were concerned she wasn't talking yet.
The specialist was very unconcerned because she comprehended so much. She said if Ellie didn't have more than 20 words by age 2 to have her re-evaluated.
Well, tomorrow is her second birthday and I'm pretty sure she has 1000 words!!!
Her favorite game is listing the names of everyone we know.
