An Awwwww.... Moment

So I was busy paying bills online when Ellie starting trying to climb up on my lap. I told to get down because I was trying to finish the bills but she kept insisting "hold me Mommy, just hold me". I kept saying "not now" while trying to explain to deaf ears that if I stop now the session will time out and I'll have to start over and I'll be done in just one more minute blah blah blah...when she all of the sudden got real quiet, looked down at the floor, and said with the most pathetic sweet little voice I've ever heard...

But Mommy...

I can't hold myself...

Of course, the bills didn't get finished.

Ellie's Summer Party (3 1/2)

Ellie insisted on a penguin party for this year's summer birthday. She had a great day! Favorite gifts included a Dora chair, penguin puppet, surgeon outfit and a rocking boat.

Happy 10 Months Josie!

...and Josie's piece too

Even More Dancing

I searched forever to find who sings the song "Gooey Gooey Gum Drop" after Ellie heard it once on Sirius Kids and then never stopped singing it. I've learned to actually look at each artist for every song, now, so I can save the agony when the next "must have" one is heard! Anyway, here's Ellie so very happy to finally own the CD (who by the way is a girl named Dawnie).

Always Dancing

I love my little sister.
