We had Ellie's second birthday party on Saturday, January 16th at Going Bonkers. It is this way fun climbing playground constructed of interwoven seatbelt-type materials. We had pizza and a Finding Nemo ice cream cake (Ellie loves "fish") and are so grateful to everyone who came and shared the fabulous day with us. Here are a few photo highlights of the party:

Thanks for the doll, Emma!
Ellie + Shake 'N Go Cars = ♥
Juliette was wonderful and slept through the whole party.
Such a cute little bug.
We went to Brio that night for dinner. YUM!
Thanks Nana and Tata for coming to the party.
Eliza had her 2-year well check on her actual birthday, January 18. She weighed 24 pounds, 6 oz which is the 21st percentile and she measured 35 inches long which put her in the 80th percentile. I didn't believe that the nurse could have measured that right (Ellie was in the 15th percentile for height at 18 months), so the doctor measured her again...and sure enough...she is 35 inches tall. I couldn't believe she had grown that much in six months! Maybe she will have some Wood height in her after all. Ellie is getting better at speaking and repeating words everyday and is such a good helper with Juliette. She loves being a big sister. She also loves Nemo, Cars, Little Einsteins, blowing bubbles, and enjoys reading her books, taking baths, and singing and drumming with RockBand. She is a fabulous eater and is a very independent young lady. And, as an added bonus, she went pee-pee in the potty for the first time yesterday and went again today. We aren't trying really hard to train her, but it will certainly be nice when we have only one in diapers.
Our dearest Ellie,
We love you so much and are so glad to have your smiling face in our lives. You brighten our days (even when you are being a little pill) and we know we could never be the same without you. Thanks for being such a good helper to mommy and daddy and a great big sister to Jules.
We love you, Ells Bells.

Happy Birthday, Eliza... We sure love your cute smile!
From your Taylor cousins.
haha I know Ellie was small but I didn't know she weighs less than my 15 month old!! She is so cute-we had a great time at the party, thanks for inviting us!
PS. If your child potty-trains herself at 2 years old we can't be friends anymore. (jk!)
Happy Birthday little Eliza Lou!!! Wished we could have shared your special day with you! We love you and miss you tonz!!!!!
