I had gotten Ellie-belly up last Saturday morning. Usually after her "don't you dare change my diaper" fit and her precious poopies have been successfully taken care of - she runs to peek in the office to see if Tim's in bed. To her joy - he was. Yay!

She cuddled just long enough for me to grab the camera and document this rare occasion.

It was great. But my question is when it's gonna be my turn to be the cuddle-ee.

I was sitting on the couch, and heard a crash.
She came around the corner saying, "Oooooh!"
So naturally I went to look and she had pushed her baby and the stroller down the stairs.

I swear I didn't teach her that.

We took Hwy 10 back to the cities - which was new to us. And to our surprise we passed through or by New York Mills where my fabulous hubby was born 28 years and 9 months TO THE DAY earlier. Pretty cool!

We had our first glimpse of Ellie not wanting to share and sobbing when Ava would play with Ellie's baby. Yikes. We've got some parenting questions to google.

We spent last weekend in Detroit Lakes with our friends Ben & Jen at Ben's parents house. It was a wonderful get-away in the middle of nowhere but still close enough to go buy cookie dough at the local Walmart. Yum!

Ellie just discovered how to take her PJs off.

She figured it out about 10 minutes ago.

That's about an hour and 10 minutes after she's supposed to be asleep.

*I failed to put on here what I was doing. This is my Under Armour stuff for running out in the cold. I felt like a ninja so I had some fun with it last night.

Tim gave her a bath tonight while I was in the other room. When he yelled that it was time for me to do come do the Mommy part of baths, I started shouting, "Where's my baby?"

I guess she got excited cause when I came in she was grinning at me from around the curtain. So I ran and grabbed the camera and tried to copy the experience.



I found my baby!!!

This one was from when we played Risk in Fergus. Ellie was being a 1 year old and running all over so we confined her to the highchair to play with her Little People nativity set for a while. When we let her out we saw she had put baby Jesus in a bed of.....whole wheat.
