Birthday party

Ella was invited to a 5th birthday party for Tung Tung, a little girl who lives in our building.



There was a princess or hero dress-up theme for the party. Ella was very excited to get dressed up for a party and would not stand still for a photo op








Finally I pin her down











Yeah!











Who plays video games in the middle of a birthday party??








Ella liked to just lay down and be bounced around by everyone else. But when surrounded by 5 year olds high on sugar, that is very dangerous!





It is very hard to take a decent picture of kids in a bouncy castle









Ella and Tung Tung

















Ella loved bouncing but could only do it once we had cleared all the big kids out. She did not understand that it was dangerous!

It's a blog Bananza!!!




Ella taking her stroller and baby (a gift from Aunty Dixie) for a walk. Baby also has a bottle of milk, which she must NEVER be without. It is clipped to her so she will not lose it.

The stroller has been hidden away for some time and has just recently been is use again. Ella would get so frustrated with it inside b/c there just isn't enough room in the apartment to play with it properly. These past few days we have been bringing it to the park and it's been so fun!

tough love


Mommy's new tough love approach to nap time. I told her if she was tired she can get into bed and sleep. If not she can play with her dollies. Then I shut the door. Here she is asleep on the dolls. Maybe I am too tough?



Ella loves to hang like a monkey!!

indoor sledding



Ella on the 'Alpine Slide' at the Caribbean Coast housing complex. I promise you she liked it the first 12 times. I just caught on her last slide, I guess.



Ella on reflexology stones in park. She often (but of course not when I am recording her) says 'ouch' with every step she takes LOL

Happy Easter


Ella's Easter breakfast (with picture from the cookbook as reference).

Obviously my mad talents are being wasted
