Ella has basically 1 month until she reaches the big 3! I can hardly believe it, but at the same time she is seeming so grown up these days. She has really started to assert herself in our house more & more over the last few months....mostly in regards to competing with her sister. Although, there are many wonderful things about having kids so close together, the competition is NOT one! It is fierce struggle for certain sippy cups, grumbling over who gets their food first, complaining over who goes potty first...you guys get the picture. I have to say Ella is usually the instigator in these little squabbles. She also is a taddletale....oh boy, this gets really interesting sometimes! On a more positive note: She's doing great with her colors, counting to 10, & she does know her alphabet song. She does get tired during the day, but continues to not nap...which has been going on since she was a little over 2, she will however, catch a quick cat nap in the car while we wait to get Jessie from preschool....this is one of my favorite times of the day, when I get to listen to my radio with no interruptions. Ella has excellent hand/eye coordination....she holds crayons & markers correctly & is very good with manipulating a paint brush. I have even started her with some basic cutting exercises. She continues to enjoy music & likes dance. Speaking of dance, I found a great program for her for the summer term & I can't wait for her to start. I feel like both girls need to begin to have things that are specifically for themselves & not do everything together. Ella loves My Little Pony & Sophia the First. Her favorite color is purple. She loves to read & has really become interested in helping me cook. She's our diva & loves to pose for me, as you can see below :) It looks like this week our weather will finally break & they will be able to fully enjoy playing outside.....we are all looking forward to it. I hope everyone has a great day!
