b-o-r-i-n-g

Now that it is "warm(er)" and schools are open and the roads are cleared, everything is getting back to normal around here. So, that really means that things aren't too exciting.

I have been paying attention to Ellen's receptive language skills and think that she is learning lots of new words. She knows baby, telephone, dog ... "Ellen, go get your green dog! Ellen, go get your telephone!"

She also seems to know breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack. Or, at least she understands "Are you ready for ___?" "Do you want a ___?" She then promptly walks to her chair. The girl loves to eat!

And then, she does a lot of this. We are working HARD on "Ellen, please put your cup on the table." She isn't too interested in complying.

YEAH! New Ellen pictures!

I was getting ready to send a nastygram asking for new pics. I think you & Ellen should come visit Aunt Betsy & her crazy students to kill some time :)

I hope she is learning that 'milk' is an incomplete concept without ...

'and cookies!'

She looks like a little woman looking up at her chair!
