Well, I've received some slack for no recent posts - I apologize. I just seems like after the excitement of the holidays, the picture-taking went on hiatus. Actually, though, Elise made a big transition from baby to toddler this month. Last week she drank her last bottle. I decided that it was time - she could suck water or juice down in her sippy cup in no time flat. So, one morning the sippy cup was all she was offered. She refused and went down for her nap without any milk. When she woke up, she was ready for her milk and was willing to take it in a cup. After that, it was just all cups for her. I am glad to be done weaning my little girl!
Elise is quite a talker these days. She says all animal sounds, hi, bye, down, help, baby, and others. She is also very good with her signs (she signs about 5 or 10 words) and uses them constantly :).

Here are a few pictures I took of Elise playing.
One of Elise's favorite books is an Eric Carle book that has motions about what animals do. Here Elise is bending her neck like a giraffe.
Playing with Abby.
