Ella wanted her hair braided in !4! braids for church last sunday. We managed to figure it out and she looked super cute!

Wesley has decided that crawling is just not enough and now he is pulling up on EVERYTHING he can. He just LOVES to stand. Where has my baby gone?

Ella takes after her mommy and she loves Halloween. She has asked to be everything from Cinderella to a fork for Halloween. I even had my sister send over her daughters beautiful Cinderella costume from last year for Ella. Ella changed her mind over and over again. Finally yesterday at the consignment sale we found the perfect Halloween costume. A dragon. Ella fell and love, and for $6, I couldn't say no. Here is her perfect costume, and no more changing her mind!

And last but not least, for grandparents day on the 13th. I had Ella draw a picture for Nana and Grandpa. She made one for Grandma too, but it hasn't been sent yet. She wanted to draw people, so I told her to draw a circle for a head, then lines for legs, body and arms and then add the hair, eyes, nose and mouth. She did an AWESOME job for her first try and drawing something specific. Now is is constantly drawing her own version of people and it is so cool to see her talent come forth. I love her little people and will cherish her drawings.

Ella is 3 1/2

Today I had a client come over for photos. Before they arrived we took the chance to have some pictures taken. Ella LOVES to have a photoshoot and she was such a great model today. I took some of Wesley too, which I haven't edited yet. None of them together, Wes was sleeping when Ella had hers and Ella was napping when I did Wes.
Grandpa got ella a "pet" dinosaur. She named it T-rex

This and that

Ella has my old Sega Genisis and several games to play with. She doesn't really know how to play but she likes pretending.g The other day she asked if Wesley could play with her. She quickly changed her mind as he couldn't keep his hands to himself!

Grandpa got Wesley a bouncer and he loves it!
