Ella and I were talking the other day on our way to gymnastics.
Ella: Mom, I think we just need to go on to the hospital
Me: Why?
Ella: Cuz, I am ready to go get baby brother and bring him home!

Bad words
Conversation with Ella the other night...
Ella: Allison said a bad word at school today.
Us: Really, what was it?
(as we patiently waited...scared of what might come out of her mouth...)
Ella: She said....poopy
(we sighed with relief as we were both imagining of what she might say)
Ella: Christian said that was a bad word.
Us: Yeah, we don't say poopy.
After she went to bed, we just talked about the pure and utter innocence of a child. Very humbling. Wish it would always stay that way!

Mary Catherine 15 months
Wow - and she is 15 months old! Just doesn't seem possible. Mary Catherine just has her own little personality and most of the time, it is just adorable. She has a way of wrapping you around her finger, that is for sure.
She still has 8 teeth (4 on top and 4 on bottom), but she has a couple of large ones that are trying to come thru. She is in a full force run and loves to eat just about anything...anything but green things that is. Although she has a healthy appetite, she is definitely more picky than Ella was. I think her favorite is watermelon. She could eat and eat and eat some watermelon. She also isn't afraid to try new things. Loves anything cold.
She is starting to say a few words now too. She can say "daddy." There are times where we think she is saying "Ella" and in her own sweet way, she will say "Thank you."
She does have a temper (and where did that come from?) :) There are times were she is just as easy going as pie, but other times, she will just pick something up and throw it down to make a point. She will lay on he ground and scream and cry for no reason. When she's done, she's done and will get up and go on her merry way.
She loves to hold hands and she can give the sweetest hug around the neck. She has really started getting into books. She will bring a book to you, turn around and back up until she sits in your lap. It's sweet. Definitely a very loving and cuddly child, that's for sure.
Ella and Mary Catherine play very well together - most of the time. It's fun to watch them and listen to them laugh together. Music to my ears, that's for sure!
