Ellie Cate at one year old!

I can't believe that my baby is one! My last baby will soon no longer be a baby....but she will always be my baby!! She is such a joy.  She is always happy and wide eyed taking everything in. Here are some things about Ellie at 1 year old!
- she is doing good waking.  She is so funny.  She is very cautious when she walks.  It's like she is thinking it through in her head.  She can go from sitting to standing. 
- she loves dogs!  When she sees a dog. She starts panting like a dog.  She loves the book "that's not my puppy" and "muddy paws"'she pats the dog on auxh page. She will sit and listen to the whole story,
- she loves to eat! She loves green beans, blueberries, oranges, strawberries, turkey....and anything else we are eating!
-she is like houdini in shopping carts and highchairs.  She can slip out of the straps and stand up so quickly!
- she loves people!  She loves to wave at people (opening and closing her hand) and stare with her huge eyes!
-words she says-ok context: mama, dada, bubba, dog, baby, uh oh, all done, thank you, there-it-is (said as one word)She does like to drop things on purpose and say uh oh.
-she is tiny!  At her 1 year app she was 18.9 pounds. 29 1/4 inches.
- she copies everything her big bro and sis do.  The other day she was walking around with a brush, brushing her hair.  
-she loves to have anything she's not supposed to have... Her favorite thing is the TV remote and my phone.  She knows how to work my phone. She uses her finger to move things on the screen.
-she loves other babies. When she sees them she says "baby" and will go up to them and try to hug them. 
- if you tell her to be sweet, she will say "ahhhh" and lay her head on your shoulder.  She also gives big open mouthed kisses.
- she is a girl who knows what she wants and she will get very mad if she doesn't get her way- kicking her legs and all.  Fortunately she's pretty easy to sway the other way.
She is a sweet girl and I am trying to soak up every moment!
