Ella!

Ella's new words this week include "Ooh-ooh-ooh" (monkey), "Na" (telephone), "Coo-cah" (cookie monster) and "Xnnng" (thing, or word for unknown things, including her toothbrush). She has been eating penne with sausage sauce, a lot of raisins, wotsits and hula hoops, some satsuma, and quite a lot of chocolate ("mmmmm"). Ella has also learned about fridge magnets, and tried standing up next to a chair and moving tentatively around its edge. And she points at people's noses and ears when asked to do so. Next week: her first birthday party!
