Beautiful day in the Neighborhood

It was such a beautiful day outside that we spend most of it outdoors. First we took Ella to the park to play on the playground. She loves going down slides. Then we took a stroll through Jake's favorite park in town. We made it home a little before lunch time which gave us more time to play in the yard. Ella enjoyed running back and forth on the porch and some on the grass while wearing her squeaky shoes. She is very into picking out her own shoes these days. Anyway, while Ella did that I pulled weeds and swept the front steps. I felt very productive.

I wanted to give you an update on what Ella has been doing and saying these days:
Some new words are: near, rake, car, truck, did it, two, me, and mail. I know they sound random but she is really starting to mimic words you say.
Ella loves to play "mommy or daddy's going to get me,"(meaning Ella will run into one of our arms and then wants either me or Jake to pretend to scare her over our shoulders), she runs, twirls like a ballerina, tries to hop, likes to find you bellybutton, knocks on a door, and climbs up on chairs and stools.



Her hair is getting long enough for pig tails.

The Park we were at today.

A mossy road in the Park that just looked really cool.

Crawling through a tube.

Taking a ride.
