Elaine, Elaine, Elaine! 11 months... this shouldn't be!! It is so crazy to me that in just a few weeks we will be celebrating Elaine's first birthday. She is growing up so much and gaining so much independence; I am realizing that there are so many instances where she just doesn't need me like she used to! Elaine is becoming more vocal and loves to imitate Lizzie, especially when she is singing or laughing. Elaine can point to her head, show you her tongue (blow raspberries), and clap her hands when you ask her to. Lainie hugs are so wonderful, and she has just recently started making the kiss sound when you give her a kiss- she is still my snuggler! She eats pretty much whatever we eat, except she still despises fruit other than applesauce (although I have snuck in some other fruit flavored applesauce which she has done ok with. Graham crackers are a new fave... Kyleigh likes them too! Although Elaine isn't acting like walking is very interesting yet, she is cruising a lot and climbing whenever she gets the opportunity! Lainie is quite spunky and has recently decided that being confined is not for her- this means she puts up a fight getting buckled in the high chair, in the stroller, in the car seat, and in a shopping cart! Yup, I now know what it is like to be "that mom" in a store with a screaming child :) Thanks Elaine! We love our sweet Elaine and all of the Joy that she exudes! Elaine is sooo busy that most of my pics of her end up being of the back of her head! Here are a few pics that I happened to snap of her pretty little face:)
Sister LOVE!
Haha! I have her trapped!
On the move!
What is Sissy doing?

Cute pictures of Elaine! Especially with her sister in the shopping cart. It is hard to believe she will be 1 at the end of this month. Time to start party planning ;) ~Emily
