Ellie is saying and doing a lot more these days ... but I'm still measuring her progress in head lifts and coos or squeals. It was a lot of fun to hang out with some bigger little kids over the weekend — our 4-year-old nephews, Mason and Jay, and 6-year-old niece Alora. Brian was happy to tickle and roughhouse with them, especially the boys.
Meanwhile, I had fun playing with Princess Alora. It's good practice for me when Ellie gets older! Alora recently attended a birthday party where all the girls got their nails painted. So I decided to be a very cool aunt and offer to paint her fingernails again. She immediately agreed and started brainstorming what designs I could draw on her nails — hearts or birds feet or lines. I explained to her that I'm not a professional nail tech, like the ones at the beauty school that did her nails last time. She finally agreed to have me paint her nails alternating colors (sparkly pink and purple) and then just add a dot of color to each one. That I could handle :)
