Milestones

Ellie: her first tooth broke through yesterday, and we she's very happy sitting up now. We just started using a booster seat at the table today.

Augie: All of a sudden, this little kid is dressing and undressing himself. Today he picked out his own clothes, took of his pajamas, and got dressed by himself. He's really proud of himself, as are we. Also, he no longer needs any assistance in the bathroom, if you catch my drift. Though he does usually like "company."

Sibling news: Augie told Deb yesterday that Ellie can live in our house forever. "Why?" Deb asked. "Because I love her." When asked, he also said that she loves him too, and he knows that because she always looks at him and wants to go where he goes.
