Ella had fun splashing through some puddles today, but a few weeks ago, she was cruising around our backyard in her sled. She LOVES being pulled around in her little sled. When Geoff pulls her around, he’ll stop every once in a while to check in with her, and she always signs for “more” sledding!
Some recent photos (it’s been a really fun month!)

My mom made Ella a homemade, pumpkin birthday cake with cream cheese frosting. Yum!! We were all dying to see what she would do when we placed that cake in front of her and let her do as she pleased (a family tradition on both sides). She took her time exploring the [...]

For those of you who don’t know, I went back to work in late August after being home with Ella for 10 lovely months. So, needless to say, I don’t have a whole lot of extra time to update Ella’s blog these days. I’m going to try to post about once a month.
Let’s see, whats [...]

This is the name of a class that Ella took this summer. She LOVED it! It was really fun to watch her explore all of the different toys and play structures. She really enjoyed the other babes, too. I loved watching her crawl up to them to check them out and smile.

Lately we’ve been referring to Ella as “Ella 1 Note” due to her one-minded determination when it comes to her latest interest or skill. For the past two weeks, Ella’s passion is climbing stairs. Sometimes she’ll climb a flight three times in a row! Above, her Auntie Emily is “spotting her” as she [...]
