Visit at Aunty Tracey and Cousin Em's
That Cousin Em is a whirlwind - she just keeps on going and she seems to have inherited her mom's daredevil gene. Not Ellis - he just looked at her like she was a nutbar. "Get down off that log Emilie - you're making me nervous!" We were also a little concerned with the jumping off of the coffee table onto mom on the couch. We spent our visit trying to cope with naptime and bedtime and in between Tracey fed us spectacular meals again and we went for nice walks in the woods. Ellis does not seem to be the best traveller - this does not bode well for upcoming travels, but at least in the future Ellis's dad will be with us. Part of the problem at Tracey's was the fact that whenever I put Ellis down and set him up with a toy, Emilie came along and took it and then Ellis was sitting there all forlorn with nothing to entertain him. By the last day there, he started to figure out what was going on and tried to hang onto toys in the bath, but that Emilie is just bigger and stronger. She usually did give him a consolation prize, but it just wasn't the same. By the last day they were playing together, thanks to Uncle Johnny - too bad it was time to go home.
