Auntie Melissa Visit - March 2009
Anytime Josh is holding Owen in the chair, Ella has to jump up and join in.
New purse and stick-on earrings from Auntie Melissa and family
Modeling her "earrings"
Ella, Auntie Melissa, and Owen. Auntie Melissa spent the week with us. It was so great to see her and she cooked us wonderful meals and cleaned and did laundry all week! It was a big help!
Owen loves to be wrapped in blankies and look around and stretch out after his bathtime. Grandma Rene made this blankie for Owen.
Auntie Melissa and Ella read books before bedtime.
Ella let Auntie Melissa put a "ponytail" into her hair. This is her very first ponytail. It stayed in about 5 seconds.
Daddy and his "mini-me"
Ella baking with Auntie Melissa
Sunbathing
Dancing the "wall-etz" as Ella would say
A wild evening at the McNames house. Ella's potty training is in full force. We have a few successes every day! She is very proud. We let her watch movies when she sits on the potty, so when she says she has to go, I'm not sure if she really has to go or wants to watch a movie.
