Okay so I am majorly behind. I figured I would just skip a week since we were traveling and getting settled in. :) And we were Gordon-less most of last week (thank you Grandma and Grandpa Earl for taking him for us)
Grandpa Earl told me that Gordon is always genuinely excited to see family members. He runs to them and gives big hugs. When uncle Cameron came to town Gordon ran to him and tackled him. Not afraid to show affection I love that
Gordon saw a picture of the Earl extended family on grandpa's computer and said, "Look, all of my friends". He really loves playing with cousins!
Ella is really getting her own little vocabulary. It is amazing to see how quickly she is picking things up. A few words that she says are: mama, dada, Gordon (which she says surprisingly well), baby, up, 'here you go dad', out, all done/all gone, uh-oh, cheese, cracker, quack-quack, please
Gordon can swim all by himself (with arm floaties on). He is doing a great job. Hopefully we can get him swimming totally on his own by the end of the summer. Ella also loves the pool. She floats around in a little raft and you can tell she feels like a little princess.
There is a little baby swing outside and Ella can't get enough of it. Her new favorite activity of the morning.
Ella has the mother instinct. She finds the baby dolls and get a blanket and wraps them up and rocks them and puts them in the crib. I think she is going to be a great helper when the baby comes. :)
Taylor is starting work on Monday. And I am feeling the baby kick a lot lately. We are all doing well and love you all so much!
