Elliot is 2!

Elliot turned 2 years old on June 17th. I can't believe we have a 2 year old. Where does the time go? It is amazing how quickly my baby turned into a little girl. So far we are really enjoying this age minus the occasional meltdowns. Elliot is talking so much now. I am constantly amazed at the words she knows.







On Elliot's birthday we went swimming at the YMCA with Ella and Shanna. The kiddie pool is shallow so Shanna and I can relax while we watch the girls play. This has become one of our favorite activities to do this summer since it has gotten too hot for the park. A lot of the parks here in Vegas have splash pads with the toys that spray water but Ella and Elliot will have nothing to do with them.


We celebrated Elliot's birthday with my family on Sunday. I made Elliot's yummy cake and she really enjoyed her presents. My parent's gave Elliot a little trunk full of fairy costumes. She loves to put on her costumes. Every time she wakes up from her nap she sees her trunk and has to put on a costume which includes a dress, shoes, wings, wand, necklace and head band. Of course after all of her gear is on then she wants her post nap cuddles. Believe me it is not so easy to hold a fully equipped fairy.
