No, we didn't stay up until midnight. Our power went out around 9:30 pm, so there wasn't much to keep us up... New Years Day we went to Grandma's house to help clean out unused items. Look at that stack of VHS tapes! Wow! We opened some celebration crackers that were filled with paper hats and toys. Took a long time before we got a purple or blue hat...
Grandma gave Elena a Tinkerbell outfit, but Elena said, "Mommy says I have to take it home and wrap it up." It's a new thing she does where all her sentences to Grandma start with "Mommy says" or "Daddy says." And no, Mommy and Daddy don't really say those things. We didn't even wrap it up at home, just opened the box and dressed up. Elena even agreed to a ballerina bun in her hair!
Elena also likes showing how big/tall she is. She goes to different areas in the house (sometimes standing on the couch) and raises her arm up to show how tall she is. "Look at me, look at me! Look how tall I am!" Elena likes to talk about how she's getting bigger every day.
Her new smile for the camera is biting her lip or cheek and doing a half grin. You can see it pretty well in a couple of pictures here.
