Sticky Pumpkin Art

I cut out a pumpkin from some construction paper and lined it with contact paper. Then I hung it on the patio door (sticky side facing her) and gave her some scrap orange paper. She LOVED it! She really loves stickers right now so I thought she's enjoy this project. Oh, ella decided to use some crayons to enhance her pumpkin art. Check it out...

Just Hanging Out

Ella can be a real bear when she wakes up in the morning or from a nap. Sometimes we let her watch Barney after a nap or in the morning. Here she is hanging out. Hehe, love the hands behind the head.

Our Walk

Ella had to take all of her friends (baby, puppy, ducky, and her other baby) on our walk this afternoon!

Lunch Date with Mommy

Ella and I enjoyed Subway together this week. Ella just loved it!

Goody Smile!

Last week Scott was in CA for work. Ella and I stayed with my parents while he was away. Scott said send lots of pics, so one morning I tried to snap a photo of Ella while she ate breakfast. I said, "Ella, smile!" And she gave me that goofy face... over and over again.

Reading the Sunday Paper

Ella knows that Scott likes the comics so she always finds them for him :) After that she enjoys looking through the ads. Today she fell in love with the Fleet Farm ad that has two pages full of puppies and meow-meows as Ella calls them!

First day of ECFE

Ella and I go to a weekly baby/toddler class through Lakeville's ECFE. We enjoy playing with other toddlers, exploring new toys, and singing new songs. Here are some pictures from Ella's first day.

Puppy love!

Ella's great grandpa Ralph built her the most adorable little baby crib and brought it over to her Friday. She loves the baby crib (her babies, stuffed animals, and blankie take numerous naps in it throughout the day), but she also loves the puppy he also gave her. She barks at it, pets it, and gives it sips of water from her sippy cup. We've had a lot of this weekend with these special new toys :)

"Ella, I'm going to have to wait until our nap to build the tower I really want."

Yep, that's the quote from Scott Saturday morning. I think he was having too much fun with Ella's blocks and she was having too much fun knocking down his constructions.

Little Helper

Ella loves helping us out. She sweeps, wipes down the kitchen appliances, dusts, and tonight she helped put away the dishes...

Play dough fun :)
