Love and more love...

Eliana is loving the outdoors this season, as you will notice from the pics below. She is go go growing like the song on Bobs & Lolo (love their DVD). Her garden is watered daily by her (of course mummy supervision as some have drowned), she is watching the peas sprout and lettuce too.
Her songs she sings have expanded to "intsy wintsy spider" and some more hebrew songs. I still haven't figured how to transfer them from the cd recorder to this so sorry, you will just have to come over to see her performances. Eliana continues to delight us with her conversation in all languages, it is truly a work of art... As the summer and the end of school looms near our household has been busy organizing rooms, watching sister have her grad events and de-cluttering. Eliana's grandparents from Isreal will be here very soon and we are all so excited and she has been practising saying their names in hebrew.

Eliana's garden, she is so proud

The clematis vines in the backyard (if you remember the garden was platnted for Eliana 2 years ago) they have mutiplied beautifully this year

Smiles, laughter, & love...

Eliana has continues to bloom this wonderful springtime. We have started a new session of "chimps" at gymnastics as well as a music class at our local community centre. She is really improving overall. She has settled in quite nicely with her new bedroom and is sleeping very well with the exception of her last molar coming in but that is temporary. We find her often in her room playing in her bed with the covers over herself, it is quite cute and we are happy she is so comfortable with the big change. With this change comes some setbacks and it is understandable, she has been potty trained for abit now but is reverting back to diapers once in a while, but thats ok and we will be back on track when she is comfortable and ready.

Here she is using her chopsticks, fantastic eh?

Music class, getting use to the teacher

One of the moments to herself in her bed during midday

At the mall in the kids play area, Eliana the captian, of course...

Eliana planting the organic seeds for our garden this year, she loves to help all the time

Spring has Sprung and its gonna be Beautiful...

Eliana has blossomed like the spring flowers this month, what a big change in vocabulary and speech. Her sentence formation is incredible, she says things like, "mummy, I can't open it", or " I just love that". As her sister says, its like talking to a real little person now. She had a fabulous time this past weekend staying at a downtown hotel with mummy and daddy. Room service was a very fun time for us all. Eliana visited Stanley Park and saw so many things like a horse drawn carriage, beluga whales, starfishes, eels, fishes,etc. at the aquarium and her favourite thing is feeding the ducks. She ran and ran in the park fields taking in the sunshine and sights. The weekend was a huge success and as Eliana says, "hotel, hotel" now. It was a nice change...
