Play

The Summer weather has had us outside playing a lot lately. Ella loves to be outside, and we love watching her discover and explore new things. These pictures are from the last 2 weeks or so. We've been very busy because we recently put our house on the market, so a lot of focus and energy (cleaning!) has shifted to that. But we've been sure to have lots of fun with Ella and of course, take LOTS of pictures. Here they are!

Having fun playing outside :)


Daddy holding her up to the trees, this is one of her favorite things to do.

Stop it, stop it! You're cracking me up! ( I think she was laughing at the cat here).

I'm so innocent :)

Smelling the flowers....or in this case, the clovers ;)

This is Ella most of the time. Happy and laughing :)

I just liked this picture, how it shows her little profile and sweet face.

She loves to pet the kitty.

Oh, kitty. You are so FUNNY!

Another sweet picture.

Turning around, looking for Daddy. I like the way the sun shines in her hair in this picture.

This is my favorite. Snuggling with my girl.

We sure do have fun!

Ladies and Gentleman, meet Minnie Mouse.

Hmmm....I forgot what I was going to say!

The crazy face. This causes a lot of laughter at our house!



Having fun playing in the grass.

She had a little trouble staying on her feet sometimes because the grass is uneven. She didn't mind though! She would just laugh every time she tipped over.

Oh, I'm glad Mama is here to help me up!

Playing ball.

On the move.
Here I come!
Don't know what this face was for, but it was funny!
Daddy and Ella.
Love this. How does a face like that not make your day?


Takin' a break!
I got it!
Ah, man. I'm getting tired.
I think I have some grass in my mouth.....

We hope you guys liked all of the pictures. I'll try to be better about posting. Like I said, things are busy having your house on the market. I'll post more about that soon enough...
Hope everyone has a great week!!

I love the picture that you commented "how can a face like this not make your day?" -- it's my favorite!

April, I can't believe what a BIG GIRL she is - she's totally a toddler now, and I hardly see any babyness left in her!! That's unbeliveable. Can't wait to see you guys - just over a month now!!

I love those pictures. You take such great pics! Ella's hair is getting long - I love the little ponytail. Looks like you have been having fun outside. Good luck w/ the house selling - ours goes on the market tomorrow. I can't stop cleaning!!

What a sweet photo set! I love them all. Thanks for sharing - made my day.

Oh my gosh! Great pictures! I kept thinking, "thats my favorite...no, thats my favorite...oh, that one is great too!" I love them all in conclusion :) She is so precious. I love the pic with the sun shining in her hair too, and the one of you two laughing, and then the one that Jess likes too. She is a great little kiddo. Where are you guys moving to? I cant imagine trying to keep my house clean enough to sell. Its hard enough to keep it clean enough to live in without having bugs eating the food off the floor!
