We're back

Well, here we are! We're back home from our wonderful holiday in Texas. We had so much fun visiting with family and friends. And, I'm sure it goes without saying, we ate a whole lot of delicious food. I haven't edited (or even looked at) any Christmas pictures, but I'm sure they'll get posted some time soon. In the meantime...

Eleanor turned sixteen months! She makes us smile and laugh more and more everyday! Here are some things she's up to:

• Walking ALL over the place! She's getting very fast and even more curious about anything and everything she can reach!
• Talking like crazy! She can repeat almost anything we say (which is sometimes not that great!) She busts out with the most random words, and totally shocks us several times a day. I need to do a post soon about things she says that make us laugh, so that I'll never, ever forget them!
• Trying to do the motions to a few favorite songs.
• Saying, "Mommy." (My very favorite thing ever!!!!!)
• Expressing great excitement about all things related to Elmo.
• Telling me what she wants to eat, which is usually not whatever I give her, and is almost always, "Ca-kkkkaa." (cracker)

Here's a little video of a few of my favorite things...
