The Words of Ella

Ella has been busy saying things over the last week and a half.  She started with :

  • dada
and then moved on to :
  • a burglar (strange, but true)
We have had constant raspberry blowing for about the last 3 months, way more extreme than Wills :-)

As with the words of Will I will periodically update this, so we don't forget any.

Update: 26 November 2013

At 13 months Ella is babbling away with gibberish most of the time, like she is trying to talk, it is very funny.

Ella's new words :


  • nah (no)
  • look
  • there
  • dog
  • socks
  • shoes
Update: 11 May 2014

For some four months Ella has been mixing things up with two or three word sentences including:

  • sit down
  • get down
  • more
  • there it is
  • yoghurt
  • circle
She also loves saying 'Hello there' to strangers in the supermarket.

Ella at 6 months old

Ella was six months old this week, on Tuesday.  I am in shock!  I was lucky enough to have some holiday recently (Centre Parcs, and for more than a long weekend this time), and spent a lot more time with her than usual which was lovely.  We took both Will and Ella (for the first time) swimming, they both loved it.  She is a very happy smiley little baby.

She is now sitting up and grabbing for everything.  Nicky has started her on solid food (in a very small way), and if she is as bad as Will was at sleeping, she is better with the solid food :-)

It is very easy to make Ella laugh, which amuses us all.  Mostly she laughs at her big brother who she is fascinated by.
