She hasn't been especially grumpy, she just wants to "see" the picture on the camera instead of taking a picture.
We are all so happy that we have a new season to enjoy! I have finally been able to open my windows to let some cool, fresh air in the house. AND our AC hasn't been on at all the whole week. We are going to love having less than $200 to spend on electricity.
We love this girl so much. She is loads of fun and action! We miss her when she's asleep or being babysat and we are constantly sharing stories about fun and new things she does. Here are a few: (she is now 21 months old)
The cute
1. She says, "what happened?" after any big noise
2. asking me to sing "of God" (I am a Child of God) at bedtime. (no more requests for "walk, walk") She even sings some of, "I love to see the Temple" with me.
3. She's very polite and says, "excuse me" and "sorry" as she squeezes by or if she bumps us.
4. constantly asking, "Daddy home?" during the day while Mike is at work.
5. rubbing or patting my belly and saying "baby." She also gives my belly hugs and kisses.
The bad:
1. full on punching Mike in the eye with a closed fist for no reason at all.
2. still throwing her sippy cup at almost every meal (ever since she started drinking from one, she would throw it)
3. Taking off her diaper, peeing on the floor, and "splashing" in it. (we're planning on potty training in a couple weeks - does anybody have the book about potty training in 3 days that they could lend me?)
4. Not eating hardly any food, but telling me every 30 minutes that she's hungry, then still not wanting any food that I offer her.
5. She thinks that everyone wants what she has, and is in the "no, it's mine!" stage

It sounds like Ellie is keeping you quite busy. I know how it goes! About the potty training, check out pottytrainingbasics.com. It worked great for us! It wasn't quite in 3 days, but that was my own fault. She is now fully potty trained and it happened in less than 2 weeks. Good luck!!!
