catch up

I am so behind on this blog... hopefully I'll be able to catch up soon. Ella loves to help Vincent with his work. She has been begging him to take her to work with him soon. In the meantime, she enjoys "helping" him with his homework. :) My friend Megan makes the most adorable hair clips. I am in love with this black one that I just bought!
Here are two pics from St. Patty's Day.
Mackenzie, Kailey and Ella at their school parade.

more fun with family

Uncle Stephen came to visit us too during his Spring Break! Ella and Jacob love their Uncle Stevie!!! One of Ella's new things that she enjoys is playing mini-golf.





Ella LOVES puzzles! This puzzle was her first mega puzzle...300 pieces!
Another favorite for Ella is reading books. She has us read to her so often that she literally has them memorized! She will lay in bed and she "reads" herself the books and she almost recites them word for word.

Six Flags

Grandma & Grandpa were in town for a few weeks and what a fun time we had with them! (as always) We took the kids to Six Flags two times! Ella was in her glory! They have a great section there for kids called Bugs Bunny Land. It's a perfect place to go for a couple hours, and considering it is just around the corner from our house...I have a feeling we'll be going there alot this summer.

the real sleeping beauty

Wow. My little Ella takes my breath away.

She is my definition of perfection.

Now don't get me wrong, she definitely has her moments...she isn't always the best listener and she can throw a tantrum like no other, but she is one of the sweetest and most loving girls in the world. She is my perfect. My perfect little girl and I love her with every ounce of me.
She makes me want to be a better person... a better mom... a better role model... I want her to be so proud of her mommy... just like I am so proud of her.
