Annnnd I'm done updating...

All of my drafts are now published so if you saw Ellie's 10 month and 1 year updates posted on the same day - yeaaaaahhh.. that's because they were sitting in my "drafts" folder.  Again - oopsy!  Hopefully I will be better about actually finishing my drafts.

10 months

Oops again. I keep forgetting to update her monthly accomplishments. Well, obviously walking is a big one. She basically took her first steps and within 2 weeks was walking across rooms. Ellie does nothing half way, it's 110% or nothing. Her favorite foods right now are peas and hot dogs. Her favorite toy is her turtle walker and her sit and spin which she mostly stands on and dances which scares her mother to death. She was 19 lbs 13 oz, but after her bout with RSV, she's down to 19. She's learned to clap and point and loves to point at things and say "dis?". She is still the happiest baby I've ever been around. Even being sick she was fairly content, just not as smiley.

Ellie's 1st Halloween

Halloween is one of our FAVORITE times of the year in the Page household.  We absolutely love it.  The pumpkins, the spooky decorations, dressing up, and the fall weather (haha just kidding we live in Texas) all come together to make it fun and family friendly.

Last night we got Ellie all dressed up in her peacock costume (custom made) and we headed out to trick or treat.  I have to say, our neighborhood is AWESOME at Halloween.  There were SO many kids and families out in the streets and almost every house was handing out candy.  Jackpot!

After trick or treating, we headed back home and Ellie's Grammy and Pop came over for Grammy's birthday celebration!

Getting ready to go trick or treating!

Ellie Stats - 1 year

Oops - forgot to post these!

Long and lean, with a teeny tiny head.

Here are some other updates on our girl.
  • Obviously Ellie has been walking for a while and she is now full on running.  She is also trying to climb on things and just learned how to get off of the couch (still working on it though).   Love my active girl!
  • She LOVES clementines, Chick Fil A, and string cheese.
  • She loves waving and saying "bye bye!" and blowing kisses.
  • Little Girl is OB-SESSED with her ball pit that she got from Santa this year.  LOVES IT!  She also loves anything "Little People" and books.
  • She officially on cow's milk!  She's been resisting a bit, but she's getting the hang of it. 
  • I'm also still nursing, but only once a day- when she goes to sleep.  Honestly, it's more for me than for her.  I don't want to give up that bonding time!  :(
  •  She is a master napper - sometimes for 3 hours at a time.  
  • She's soooo funny.  When did my baby get her own little attitude and personality?
