Feeding the Ducks

A short while ago we went to the park to feed the ducks.
(Which eventually turned into feeding the seagulls)




Ella was very excited about giving her bread to the ducks . . .





Until she decided she wanted it more.

Best Buds

Ella is part of a playgroup that we have been with for about a year now. She has become quite attached to many of the kids. Whenever I mention that we are going to playgoup she'll start calling out their names, "Meghan! Wyatt! Sadie! Lily!"



Here she's hugging Meghan bye-bye.

Somehow this looks like a photo of a crime scene.



It would have seemed more sinister had she not been saying all the while... "I like peeps. mmmm... mmmm.... mmmm..."

Easter Grass Revisited



The nature of Ella's relationship to Easter basket grass has changed since last year.

Now she just tries to make it levitate with her magic toddler powers.

Great Moments in Toddler Couture



Some would see a flat rubber ball found at the playground and think “oh, a flat rubber ball.” Ella, however, saw the fashion potential immediately.

My Work Is Done Here...



Having saved the town from the crooked sherrif and his gang, the Incredibly Cute Stranger toddled off into the sunset.

Okay, actually she walked next door to see Sam, our neighbor's poodle.

I see a moon in the sky!



"I see a moon in the sky!"
Ella's first 7-word sentence, uttered while we were out for our 'evening constitutional' (you know, one of those tactics designed to run her batteries down just a bit before bathtime).
