Today Ella will attend Lexi and Kenny's wedding with mummy and daddy. She is ready for this celebration and has benn clapping and saying yay!!!!!! all morning. She dances, even when no music is playing and is able to pull herself up to stand really quickly now. She seems to be into everything now thst she can get around and my bookshelves have never looked crazier. Patrick commented this week that he is an organised person as well and then you become a parent.How do organised people manage with little children? I consider myself a rules person and I also love just letting Ella be Ella and figuring out her personality, likes and dislikes. I guess eventually a middle ground will emerge, right now she is flying free!Don't misunderstand me, we set boundaries and keep her safe, but she sets her sleep times and although that is frowned upon by her pediatrician, Ella has established her own pattern and has great sleeps.

I am officially opposed to sleep training. I wasn't sleep trained and I turned out just fine.

Her two little teeth came out just fine as well-so cute!!

Ella crawls everywhere!! The living room has been rearranged to accommodate her or more appropriately to keep her contained..nothing is safe.we are trying to connect with my mum on skype-this shouldn't be difficult.Ella waves and sticks out her tongue when excited..back in a bit
