14 Months


Ella Kate is 14 months old today. She is a mess for sure! She is so fun and it is such a blessing to get to spend my days with her. She is in to EVERYTHING and is so curious. She loves to walk around the house talking on my cell phone. She carries it everywhere with her. Sometimes, she also carries pictures around with her and talks to the people in the pictures. Pretty funny! She is great at identifying people that are in pictures on the bulletin board in her room. When you ask her where someone is, she will look and as soon as she spots that person, she will point and laugh. She is still loving all fruits and choses to eat them over anything else. She has been practicing "ringing her cowbell respectfully" and will be ready for Saturday. She has finally moved up to a size 3 shoe. She has little peanut feet like her mommy. She loves to dance and has just learned how to blow her nose (which is really her just making a blowing sound with her mouth but she thinks it counts). I'm sure there is more but in true EK fashion, it's 8:00pm and she's ready for bed so I better go.

Better Late Than Never...

A belated Happy Birthday shout out to Pop!!! We hope you had a great birthday yesterday and we will see you in a few days!!!! We LOVE you!!!!!

A Masterpiece

I love doing crafty things, so I thought why not get Ella Kate involved. I decided she could paint her first canvas today, and boy did she have fun doing it!


Notice the tongue sticking out? She was concentrating so hard! It takes a lot of focus to do great works of art!
After finishing her canvas, Ella Kate proceeded to paint her art table, the easel, the stool, the door to the deck, the broom...you get the idea. She LOVED it!!!

A bath was definitely in order for my little artist!
And voila, the finished product...with a few touches from Mama. =)

Daddy and our Dock





Friday Night Lights

Last Friday night, we went to the Oak Grove/Bassfield game. Other than the 120 degree heat, and an hour weather delay we had a super night and Oak Grove won easily. Ella Kate had a blast, but only made it until halftime before she was ready for bed....it was 10:00 though, so I can't really blame her!
Ella Kate and J checked out the guys. Pop, EK thinks the team looks pretty athletic, but could probably use you as a one of their coaches!!!

Ella Kate really liked the cheerleaders. She clapped along with them and even caught a football after OG scored a touchdown!
Ella Kate also liked seeing some of our Heritage students. She wasn't so crazy about Layton (her boyfriend) with all of his face paint though! He was a pretty scary Warrior!!!
