Elena's vocabulary is always expanding and becoming more understandable. Then last night Elena said her first sentence..."read a book". This sentence has been in the making for many months now. It started out as "buh, buh, buh", then went to "bookha, bookha, bookha", then "booK", then we finally had "book" and now "read a book". It is amazing to watch her growing from a baby to a little girl, not just physically but cognitively too.
In other news around here, I finished my first month back to work. Elena has done well at day care though she is sick again with another head cold, poor baby. We are working through kinks of communication with daycare--it is hard not knowing how well your child napped or ate during the day. It makes our evenings a little unpredictable, but we're starting to get into a rhythm. Cooper has adapted well to being home by himself all day. He even enjoys a morning snuggle with Elena. That's about the only time he'll snuggle with her.
Cooper has also decided it is okay for him to play with Elena...something she has been trying to do for months. She loves to play tug-of-war and throw Cooper's toys down the hallway. Elena does not try to take Cooper's toys away from him--she leaves that to us.
