Receive Text UpdatesElaina loves going out to bird watch and names all the birds with her grandma! She loves going out right at sunset to watch it and we turn on music and dance while the sun sets! Overall, she just really enjoys being out in nature and the beauty of it! She loves getting dirty and playing in the mud and making mud pies! She just wants to be outside going wherever the wind takes her and playing with any animal she finds along the way.
Her favorite animal is a ferret because we have a ferret named Rosie Posie. Rosie Posie is her best friend and they do everything together! She has taught her how to swim and thinks she looks like an otter when we let her swim in her play pool. She loves Rosie Posie and all ferrets because they are ALWAYS playful and cuddly! Elaina has Rosie Posie play dolls with her and has her sleep in a crib. Elaina loves that ferrets like to run around and bounce and roll over and be silly and steal things!
Her favorite outdoor activity is going on what we call a stick hunt! Her grandparents have land so we will go out looking for the best stick and try to find little bugs and animals (mostly lizards) on the way! She will also make little forts out of the sticks or pretend to be old and use them as walking canes😂
