Time with Daddy

Ellie got to do her two of her "favorite things to do with Daddy" this weekend.

1) Bake bread.
(No pictures since I wasn't there but here are some of her and Josie enjoying it...it was so good!)




2) Play music.

So sweet...

Birthday Party

Ellie had so much fun at her friend Katie's birthday on Saturday!


Birthday girl!


Maddie and Ellie


Fun bouncy house slide.


Limbo!


Josie just wanted to swing in her favorite swing the whole time...

(Corie, if we ever get our own swing set, that Clifford swing may just have to mysteriously disappear from your back yard one night!)

Where's Ellie???








Here I am!!!

Park Play

The weather has been fantastic so we have been going to the park often too! This is one we haven't been to yet and so we were pleasantly surprised to see a merry-go-round! Ellie was so excited to ride for the first time ever...


(The hat, by the way, has become a favorite of hers. It's worn just as much inside as out!)







Friends from ballet class. Josie and the other baby are just 4 days apart.

Big Pool

Now that both girls will go into the big pool, it has been much more fun for all of us! We try to go almost every afternoon after Josie's nap. Ellie wears a life jacket and/or floatie (sometimes both!) but she really wants to learn to swim. Since I have to stay so close to Josie, it makes it hard for me to work with her. Swim lessons start at the high school soon, though, so I'm sure we will be doing that!





Ellie- unaware that I was watching (and recording) her. She always has a song in her head so of course the water made think of this one this time...


Josie- just floating around and loving it!

Once Again: Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star (with singing!)

And more composing...just look at that hand posture! :)

Happy Dog
