Ellie got tubes in put in her ears on March 2nd to hopefully reduce the number of ear infections she has. A week after her surgery she caught a virus--nasty cold/flu with vomiting and the works. She followed that up with a really horrible ear infection. The antibiotics are helping and she's feeling much better the last couple of days. Poor Ellie. She just can't seem to catch a break.
We are pretty sure these ear infections have affected her development. She is very small for her age. She doesn't walk well yet--just a few steps at a time, and usually when we are encouraging her. She doesn't say many words consistently. But she can sign a lot of words now. She knows sign language for: eat, all done, juice, milk, water, more, bath, cat, dog, horse, cow, fish, rabbit, duck, bird, etc. She waves hi, and bye, and blows kisses.
Ellie loves her new ride-on bumper car, and is addicted to some toddler friendly apps on my new iphone.
Here are some pictures we've taken over the last few weeks:
