Ella at 7 Years Old

At 7 years old (and 3 months) Ella loves:

Ballet, reading Judy Moody and really anything else she can get her hands on.
She's empathetic, loving towards her brother and is always ready to try new things!
She started playing softball in a clinic and has lost eight baby teeth( one loose one now)!
Her favorite foods are watermelon, tacos and chili.

She's a quiet learner at school, but is confident when sharing her ideas and work with her classmates.

Her friends right now are Fiona, Olivia and Amelia and cousin Ava and Connor(of course!)

Five and Seven

How can they be five and seven? We celebrated with a family party at auntie Heather's house, and presents with Nanny and Bubba and cake, of course on each actual birthday. Connor loves legos right now and got a huge Lego fire truck which he has been enjoying putting together....and Ella got her ears pierced! A big girl....:(
I really want time to slow down, we no longer have babies in this house. :(

Sweet boy

Connor is such a sweet, gentle soul. I want to remember the days of him tucking his baby into bed( really is Ella's baby)... I know it won't last forever.

Ella made her first recipe on her own

Baked apples at the cabin
She followed the directions from start to finish. They turned out so good!

It was like life came full circle... Taking Ella to visit calm and climb Mt. Rattlesnake. Just the two of us enjoying the special time together and the special place that is so much of who I am today...
