BLacK FriDay ShoPPinG...

She knows EXACTLY what she wants.

(we told SANTA to get her the baby with the purple jammies on!)

Ella was playing with a pack of birthday themed stickers yesterday. She suddenly got very quiet and I grew very suspicious. When I came over to check on her this is what I found. She taped her own mouth shut with a sticker!!! She thought it was so funny.

(Sorry for the blurry picture, I took it with my cell phone.)

Little DIVA Breakfast!

Every morning Ella wakes up and knows exactly what she wants for breakfast. Most of the time she asks for juice and lolo (yogurt). This morning was unusual, she could not decide what to eat. First she asked for doose (juice), then milsh (milk), then reroos (cheerios), then po-pples (apples), then b (peanutbutter toast). It was kind of annoying and SUPER cute at the same time.
She usually has NO opinion whatsoever, and either eats alot or a little of what is put in front if her. I hope this is not starting a new trend. Daddy is a VERY picky eater and I hope she is not following in his footsteps.

Rockin' the Pony Tail!

This is Ella's FIRST pony tail!
In my opinion this is a HUGE milestone in a little girls life.
It was very exciting for me too.
So here is the picture overload of my excitement.

I am so PROUD of Ella, she has enough hair (finally) for a small pony.

TRUCKS TRUCKS

Ella is obsessed with trucks.
When we are driving she points out every single one she spots.
From a little tiny beat up old Datsun to a 18 wheeled big rig, she LOVES them all.

You can imagine her excitement while sitting passenger

in a nice extra cab truck for the first time.
She was on could nine.
I have never seen her so excited.
It was a huge deal for her.
She just beamed the whole ride to Grammie and PaPa's.

Elliott and PaPa (my Dad) took Ella with them to the store today.
This is the picture they sent my cell phone while they were there.
Looks like so much fun eh?

Halloween Spooktackular!!!!

So of course we used our Sea World passes to enjoy their special Halloween themed shows.

We saw the Shamu show.

We went to the Sesame Street "Lights, Camera, Imagination" 3-D movie.

We watched the Sea Lion and Otter Thriller special.

We fed the Sea Lions.

We admired the Beluga Whales.

This trip to Sea World we also did some things we have not done before.
We played in the Wild Arctic and saw the polar bears.

We spent some time racing cars in the Arcade.

We played in the making music area of the Bay of Play.

Elliott and Ella braved the "Oscar's Rocking Eel" ride.

We let Ella touch sea stars and urchins at the California Tide Pool.

It was another AMAZING trip.
We hope to go one more time before the end of the year when our passes will expire.

Happy Halloween!

Ella was a very cute lion.
We went to our ward Halloween Carnival and she won an award for the "cutest costume".
She loved all the attention.
