How Big
Estella responds to the question, "How big is Estella?" by raising her little arms above her head.

She has a new little tooth on the lower left and another causing her some pain breaking through on the lower right.
We have been caring for our neighbors chickens lately and this morning had some farm fresh eggs, except Estella just eats the yokes.
Eating time has changed a lot. She eats many more different foods and often wants what we are eating. She likes toast with cheese, yogurt, mango, blueberries, noodles, yams, sweet potato and more. She is very quick on her butt. She can scoot very fast.
I have had to tell her a firm "No!" regarding the cat food and their water. Whenever she is bored with her toys it is the first thing she goes for. In the yard on Sunday we were gardening and I had a challenge leaving her alone with any dirt or leaves or grass, because everything goes to the mouth. Her mouth was kept clean, but had to be washed a couple times to keep it that way.
She has a new carseat and is seldom in the mood to enter it. Though when she finally surrenders, she melts into it and falls fast asleep.
She is lovely and so fleeting. She is always moving, so when she falls asleep, Robyn and I often take a few minutes of watching her, enjoying her baby aroma and her gentle warmth. It makes you want to scream.
