5 on Friday

1. We have done well with sickness in our house this winter, just colds... until Monday when Ellie came down with a fever. A little medicine and she was back to her normal self. No complaints, we were due and it was a pretty easy illness this time around.

2. Ellie being sick meant Ellie and Mommy got to spend Valentine's Day together! So far Nick and I have avoided catching whatever it was she had.

3. Last weekend we had some friends over for dinner and to see the house. Three little girls fairly close in age and a little baby boy... super cute! Once again we loved being able to use the kitchen and new kitchen table. What a difference it makes when having a larger group over.

4. On Tuesday night I was tucking Ellie into bed and we were talking about her going to day-care the next day (since she had been home sick the previous day and a half). She must have known it was going to be Wednesday and sometimes on Wednesday's her and I go to the mall after work because she said, "Go to mall tomorrow." I informed her that we wouldn't go to the mall tomorrow, but maybe another week. She responded with, "Go to mall. On Saturday maybe."

5. For what I think was the first time ever, Ellie did not want to go to day-care yesterday. She said, "No day-care today, maybe Sunday. " I informed her that day-care was not open on Sunday, so she better go today instead. She ran away when it was time to put on her coat. I love having conversations with her, and having her understand what I say. She is growing up so quickly.
