Sorry Ella we missed a few months but all is well. Let’s just say we love having you as part of our family. You are definitely the hardest child, but also one of the sweetest. You keep me on my toes and your teaching me all about patience and long suffering. I'm finishing this post on October 13th, 2019, so you're a little over 2 1/2 now Ella! I'm reading the above part of what I wrote a few months ago and I must say, you've calmed down a little bit. You've figured out how to communicate better and don't get as angry. You're still having a difficult time forming words, so we are starting an early intervention program with you tomorrow! Hopefully they'll be able to help you figure out talking a little bit better.We just love you so much and can't imagine our family without you. At your wellness checkup, you did so well! I think it really helped for you to see sister getting a checkup at the same time. You didn't even cry during your shot. I was ve...

Happy Birthday my sweet baby. I can't believe you're two, it seems like you were just born yesterday. One thing is for sure, I can't imagine what we would do without you in our family. You bring so much joy to our family. You still are quite dramatic, but it's getting a bit better since you can communicate a bit more these days. You still aren't talking much, you have a hard time putting sounds together, but I'm not worried. You've always liked to take your time and that's just fine with me. The last time I took you to your doctor's appointment they found a little cyst on your inner lip. They had to swab it with this chemical that stung, but you held so still and were such a good sport. I was so proud of you. You still are very dramatic and emotional. The other day I heard a blood curdling cry from you and I thought for sure that you broke something, but no. You were on the floor crying because you had dropped your goldfish out of your cup. Seriously...

Oh Ella! 20 months huh?? Somedays I can't believe what we did without you and somedays I can't believe how quiet it was without you hahah You have definitely brought a lot more joy and sunshine into our lives along with a lot of tears and noise. You are one loud little lady! We're really trying to help you communicate better so you don't scream and cry all the time. You just have so much passion and you just need to figure out how to bridle your passion. You feel things very strongly and that's okay, we just need to figure out how to control those strong emotions of yours. You absolutely love your sister, today you ran over to her and gave her a big kiss. It was the sweetest thing ever. Also, Gracie loves you so much too. She is always looking out for you, whenever she gets something good, candy, snacks, toys, etc she always asks if you can have something too. You guys definitely have each others backs and it is so sweet. Stay close to each other, love each other an...
