Ellie snuggling, playing with and terrorising her daddy

“I love you too”

Ellie has started to be more interactive with her speech, forming shorter sentences and responding to questions contextually.

Our new favourite is without a doubt when we tell her “I love you” and we get the response “I love you too”.

Another adorable phrase which we haven’t yet been able to capture in audio is the response to when we sneeze: “Bless you Daddy!”.

Selfie video [VIDEO]

While I was getting a rare first-thing-in-the-morning snuggle from Ellie, I decided to try and take a photo, but when I did, and she could see herself on my phone screen, she started playing with her mouth and watching the image on the screen repeat her, which intrigued her and made for a nice little video.

Visiting Daddy for lunch

Ellie has been making a habit of visiting me for lunch once a week at work, which is really nice for me, as it breaks my day up and allows me to add a precious hour to the time I get to spend with Ellie during the week.
