Newly heard around these parts:
"But, MoooOOOM..." (mom dragged out)
No idea where it came from, but it's hilarious every time.
Ellis is officially a kid this summer, thanks to:
-at least a half-dozen skinned knees
-a tumble out of her crib resulting in a diagonal-line bruise across her cheek
-a showdown between Ellis' forehead and the corner of a table
-her first "tattoo" from the NICU alumni picnic last weekend (it was a butterfly on her arm, which she cradled all week)
