A few more snippets
of everyday life:
On Saturday, Em, Elle, and I read board books and sang fingerplays (itsy bitsy spider, three little monkeys) in the van while Todd froze his ears off on the soccer fields. Em informed me that the monkeys did get away because "monkeys are very brave and do NOT let crocodiles eat them." Just so you know.
Each night, right after teeth brushing, Elle makes her rounds for bedtime kisses. She is very particular about how she receives these. If you do not smack her square on the lips, she makes you try again.
She is also displaying remarkable gains in the arenas of fine and gross motor skills, especially as they apply to dressing/undressing herself. It is not unusual to walk into the living room and find her completely in the buff, sitting happily on the couch, singing along with Dora and Boots.
This, we hope she outgrows. Soon.
