Dora

Saying that Ellie is obssesed with Dora the Explorer is an understatement. She lives and breathes Dora. We try to limit her to 2 or so episodes of Dora a day, but there are days that we need more than that. Ellie becomes a happy, content baby when watching Dora.

As posted earlier, she is learning from Dora. She meets Daddy at the top of the stairs as he comes home after work shouting "abre, abre" while she shakes the babygate.

The video below was from my birthday (a month ago). Daddy made me my favorite brownies for my birthday. He adorned them with candles, including a Dora candle as a joke. Ellie was playing with that candle when it fell on the floor and, as you can see, broke in half. The video that follows is her reaction.
