Although I have a massive pre-Christmas post to make, I decided this couldn't wait. I was at my mom's house yesterday baking, and Ella and Daddy were hanging out at home. Tom called me and told me that while he was picking up the kitchen, Ella was being very quiet. So he went in her room to check on her and this is what he found:
Tom said when he went in there, she was 'hiding' behind her chair.....and when she heard the "beep beep" of the camera, she came out and said "CHEESE!"
Behind the rocker.
Her activity table. Luckily, the marker wiped off of this.
Ella got a little messy, too.
It cracks me up how she is holding her hands out here.....
It was EVERYWHERE!!
Is that face pure mischief or what?
Another shot of her handy work.Tom called me and told me all about it. He was so dumbfounded, he could barely speak! Mostly, I just heard this: "Ella........she was quiet.....black marker......everywhere! Oh my gosh!!!....." I asked Tom if he got after her for it, but he said he was so taken aback, he just called me first! I think she knew she was in trouble, though, because she just hid behind her rocking chair. I realized that she got the marker in the very back of one of her dresser drawers....I had used it as a scrapbooking pen for her baby book! After he told me all about it on the phone, I told him to take pictures. I mean, hey, we'll laugh at this someday, right? (already!)
Ok, as I mentioned before, I have a huge pre-Christmas post to make. Hopefully I'll get that up in the next few days!! Hope you all are getting ready for Christmas!!

I can't stop laughing. Her face says it all!! I think you have a little artist on your hands!!
As I laughed out loud reading this, I had a brief glimpse of what is to come in my life.
By the way, her hair is getting so long and cute. Beautiful girl.
Oh my goodness gracious, April. I just gasped when I started reading! Too funny (after the damage is gone). :-) Merry Christmas Week!
Well done, Ella... always have to worry when it's too quiet!!
I think you have a budding artist on your hands. There were some wonderful details on the wall; I think I saw hearts, an arm, a leg, and a face. I think Tom handle the situation great. I hope I can remain calm when it is my turn with Annalise.
Priceless! You will be so glad you took pictures. Those will come out on her graduation from college :)
Oh my! I love that she popped out and said cheese. I think that is what cracked me up the most.
It's sure hard to be mad at someone so darn cute! Merry Christmas Veos!!
OH MY WORD!!!! That is hilarious! Have fun cleaning that up:) You're right...it will be quite the story later on down the road!!
oh my gosh! I'm laughing but not too hard b/c I'm sure that will happen to us too. How could you get mad at her though w/ that face? I hope the marker comes off most of that stuff!
Oh NO!! Shoot. Sounds a bit familiar. These toddler girls are such stinkers. That is a funny post. Sorry that happened. At least you can laugh about it.
