Year End Review - 2018

Image
As I get older, these posts are a way of remembering things better.  There's so much to remember and I forget daily! January  We celebrated Luke's 5th birthday with a PJ Masks themed birthday party!  Luke is starting to get to be more independent.  February  I turned 34 and celebrated with some friends at 1908 house of wine.   March Ellis started daycare for the first time.  She adapted well to the situation.  We purchased a brand new car! April Luke learns how to read!  We are SO proud of him, and he is so excited about it!  We also celebrated Easter. May We celebrated Ellis's 2nd birthday!  Ellis transitions to a toddler bed.  Luke graduated from Pre-K.  We also flew to Utah for my cousin's wedding.  Our entire family took family pictures this month.  June Mommy left on a two week trip to Europe.  The kids did great without Mommy which made

Ellis is 2!  I can't believe it.  It seems like yesterday she was born and now she's running around walking and talking.  At 2: Ellis weighs 30.8 lbs is 34 inches tall wears size 3T clothes Wears size 6 diapers takes one long nap for an hour and a half She is such a sweet girl!  She loves to sing lots of songs.  Her favorite song is "Twinkle Twinkle".  She can count to 14 in English and 10 in Spanish but she mostly forgets how to say 8 and 9 in Spanish.  Her favorite movie is Coco!  She would watch it all the time if she could.  She loves to boss around her big brother.  She becomes a little parrot when I'm speaking to luke.  The following is a conversation with her: Me calling to Luke: Luke!  Brush your teeth now so we can leave. Ellis yelling:  Luke!  Brush your teeth ...... Me calling to Luke:  Luke!  put your shoes and socks on Ellis yelling:  Luke!  shoes on! ...... Me calling to Luke:  Luke!  Let's go.  come on!

Year end Review - 2017

Image
As always, I feel like the end of the year is a good time for reflection.  You have to know where you've been in order to move forward.  It's like being on a ship, checking the log, and righting the ship towards the destination.  2017 was a pretty decent year at the Rollins Residence. January 2017 -  Luke turned 4!  We had a paw patrol party for him. Paw Patrol party for Luke! Ellis is 8 months and is now pulling herself up to stand at things. Big girl and Luke like to play together February 2017 - I turned 33.  It was not a big birthday year for me.  Nothing new to report. Ellis is 9 months.  She and Luke are so cute together.  Luke got lots of testing done, blood work, colonoscopy, and finally allergy skin testing.  But at the end of the day, we found out that he's perfectly fine.  He's allergic to dairy, yeast, soy, apples and peanuts. Luke's allergy testing March 2017 -  Ellis is 10 months and final
