Loves water, just like her older sister. She has a baby boat for the pool she likes to bob around in. Many adorable photo ops.
Our first stop on our recent trip up north was the cabin, where the whole fam damily convened for J and L's 50th wedding anniversary party. On our third day there we went for another creek walk (creek walk has become a tradition at the cabin). Me and Mom and Aunt L. and cousin Al stayed behind at the trail head to hang out with El, who was enjoying sitting in her bumbo seat halfway in the shallow water, while big sis did the big kid creek walk with GW and the whole group. El felt the cool water on her toes and kept trying to reach in and grab it, with that little splayed-finger, twisty wrist motion she does. She could have stayed there for hours.
She's one alert, aware, curious little baby. Her rolling over and babbling have accelerated like a rocket lately. She says all the vowel sounds, and many consonants, including the hard "g" sound. And she sounds like a cat when she squeals. When I finally figure out how to upload video properly, I'll put that up. Right now I can only watch it on my camera, but at least I've got it recorded.
