Our Week

Playing with Daddy after work. We both love it when he gets home. 

Excited about her house guest. She loves to pretend she's getting mail. 

Playing on her new big girl mattress. The bed is almost done. She should be sleeping in it by this weekend! 

Fun at Grace Playce. 

Then we went to the park for a picnic with Ashley & Kate. Super fun! I did get stung by a wasp & that turned out to be quite unpleasant for a few days, better now though.

We then headed to Kate & Ashley's favorite yogurt eatery, Yogurt Mountain. Ellie Grace has never been an ice cream fan but this day she turned over a new leaf. 

Trying it....

Thinking about it.....

The verdict is in! 

At her Mother's Day out they have a car line where the teachers come & get her out of the car. To help the teachers out I unbuckle her & let her stand here while we wait in line until they come get her. She loves it! 

She's excited about the rug for Mason's room. Me too. 

We didn't go anywhere for halloween this year but on that night we went over to my parents to celebrate my mom's birthday with my brother & his family. The other girls were wearing costumes just for fun so we dressed Ellie Grace up as a basketball princess. 

Friday night we went & watched Daddy play flag football. She loves to go. She gets so excited when he runs, he's really fast. She also enjoyed her first tootsie roll pop. It was a miniature one. I don't think she liked the gooey center. We shall stick with dum dums. Her favorite part of suckers is when it gets really small & she's able to bite it off the stick so from the very first lick she starts asking me," is it ready to bite yet?" So I have to tell her no about 86 times until it is actually ready to bite. 

Teaching Ellie Grace the finer things of flag football. 

Working on her golf game.

Styling in daddy's shades. 

Showing her painted pumpkins. We have continued to paint them over & over. 

Enjoying lunch outside.

I have probably made an unwise decision but Ms. Moody eater eats so much better when I let her sit in a regular chair as opposed to the high chair so I am letting her sometimes.  :/

Here she is Sunday. We were waiting for some people before we got out of the car. She wasn't riding like this. :)

Daddy joined Ellie Grace on her favorite spot in the house in somewhat of a spring picture pose. 

On our walk this morning. 

Chalking it up. 

Playing in our flower beds. She thought she was in the jungle.
