Halloween

This is the first year that we took Ella Trick or Treating.  We've been telling her for awhile now all about it.  My mom was really the one who started telling her about Halloween and really got her excited.  
When we got home tonight we explained what we were going to do.  She was so excited!!! She couldn't wait to go.  I was very surprised how willing she was to walk up and say trick or treat.  We were very proud that she said Thank you and Happy Halloween to everyone after she got her candy.  A few of the houses we had to go up with her and one we skipped all together because it was pretty scary.  
We just love living in our house and having a nice neighborhood to walk around.

Dentist!

Ella had her very first trip to the dentist today.  We had to wait awhile because Devin had an appointment too.  The entire time we were waiting, she kept saying "I see dentist Mama?" We would practice opening our mouths big and wide so that the dentist could see our teeth.  We talked about not biting him and knowing he was going to clean them.  She got a little bit impatient but generally speaking, she did well while we waited for daddy to be done.  When it was her turn, she ran straight up to the hygenist and gave her a hug.  Ella did so well during the "cleaning" and was only a little bit scared when the Dr. turned the light on above her.  We were so proud of this little girl.  All of her teeth are in now and super clean!


We love Dr. Hatch :)

Stylish

Ella loves to dress up- Her imagination is wonderful and I like listening to her talk to her toys.  She LOVES everything Disney and is really getting into the Disney Princesses.  I am so so in love with this little girl.

Cars

A few weekends ago, Devin was so nice and decided to wash my car.  Now typically this would be a very boy thing to do but, Ella LOVED it.  She loved being outside with her daddy washing mommy's car.  She was so excited about it that the next day she asked if she could wash daddy's car too.  I love how much this little girl loves her daddy.





Grandma Washie

My mom came for a visit last week while my dad and brothers hiked the Grand Canyon.  It was really nice having her here and Ella loved every moment with her Grandma.  I took a couple of days off to shop with them both and to spend Daddy and Papa's money :) 
We watched princess movies, Halloween movies, decorated pumpkins, and made lots of yummy food.  
My mom makes everything so special and can make songs for just about any occasion/thing.  I am hoping that we can make it an annual thing for my mom to come and spend time with us.

Thanks for coming to play with us Mama :)
