Hi everyone! We just received an email from Javi He asked for everyone to please email him He pays two dollars for an hour from some Iraqi post. Any way, can one of you please invite him to this site? Happy New Year to one and all. I love you all very much but I'm sure you already know that or at least you better!

Elena's busy day

Elena's stats:

height 37.75 inches - 65th percentile

weight 30.6 pounds - 45th percentile

in short - a tall, skinny Minnie

Her school appointment went fairly well also. She had just woken up from a nap when we arrived, so her mood wasn't great and she cried and wouldn't let me put her down. Then she suddenly realized all the kids had gone outside to play and decided to join them. Off she went and had a great time, until we had to leave...when she cried hysterically again. sigh. 

Good old Isabel had us all laughing. Grandpa was commenting on how well she eats her "tolito" in the morning. Dad wanted to hear her say it so he asked her what she eats in the morning and she responded "Snakes! with ketchup" She is only crazy kid
