Jayisms

In Jay's world, everything falls into one of two categories: a good idea, and not a good idea.  He uses these phrases all day long.

Example:
"Jay, it's time to go to bed."
"NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!  That is not a good idea!"

and
Jay (stalling at bedtime): "I want juice."
Mommy: "You just brushed your teeth. You can have juice in the morning."
Jay: "No!!!  That is not a good idea!!!!"

or

"Jay, we're having pizza for dinner."
"Yes! That is a good idea!"

Ella update

Ella is almost one (less than a week away)...I know if I don't post this update now while I'm thinking about it, she'll be three before I remember.

Ella isn't walking on her own yet, but she loves walking when we hold her hands, and she cruises around the furniture.

She is still a crawling machine!  She's very fast and can get herself wherever she wants to go.

She has 8 teeth, four on the top and four on the bottom.  She appears to be getting another one right now, but I can't figure out which one.

Her hair is finally getting long enough for bows, but she won't keep them in.

Her favorite thing to eat (besides mommy milk) is French fries.  She'll eat anything we give her.  She loves fruit, especially blueberries.

She still nurses constantly, and sleeps best in mommy's arms.  Mommy and Ella sleep in the guest room most nights.  We're going to start working on getting Ella to sleep through the night in her crib so that both of us can sleep better, but Mommy will miss sleeping with Ella so so so much.

Ella prefers Mommy to anyone, but she'll jump out of my arms if her daddy reaches for her. 

Ella adores her big brother Jay, and he is starting to enjoy playing with her (and getting annoyed with her playing with her toys).
