Mommy was surprised how much Ellia liked the zoo. She would squeal at the animals and called them all "duh" for dog. She was woofing at several other animals! She was sooo well behaved too and didn't complain about riding in the stroller or being short on sleep. She enjoyed the spot where you can brush the goats, and she found a dog that she could pet. The dog at home is too rough with her! It was a fun day.

Ellia enjoys her older siblings, and she watches everything they do. Lately she enjoys having Ellery pull her in her little car or even pushing Ellery herself! She likes climbing up to her small table to read books. Ellia can now say "duh" for dog and then she likes to follow it with "woof".

Ellia is still our happy child, though her age means she has wants but can't yet communicate them. So sometimes she is not as happy as she used to be! However, we went to Augusta, GA to visit mommy's college friend and we caught her in a few happy moments!
