We have been going to the pool pretty regularly and today we went to Wood Park. Ella was much more daring and had fun climbing and jumping and sliding and pulling herself through tunnels. At one point, I was going through a tunnel ahead of her and she said, “You can’t fit – your tushy is too big!” I am proud to say that it wasn’t too big but I couldn’t stop laughing. OK mommy – get here already. Your turn to pull yourself through the tunnel! Grandma just stood and watched us and laughed and said “OY”. On Monday night, Ella and I went into NY and had dinner with AJ, Michael, Jordin and Kevin. Carolyn and Vaughn were also over for a little while and Ella got to meet him for the first time. She had fun with him and really seemed to like him. He is a cutie. When they were leaving, Ella looked at Vaughn and said, “Don’t forget – you are my cousin”. Ella was a trooper at a late dinner and ended the night on Kevin’s lap playing with my iTouch.

Here she is pretending that she doesn’t care that she doesn’t have a big floatie but she really does.
Ella scored a lizard thinks to grandma bear.
More floating.

What beautiful photos. Milo will be here any day now!
Lots of fun in the tunnels and climbing at wood park.

Playing ball with papa. Notice that Ella actually left the house today wearing shorts and a tank top. We didn’t make a big deal about it but it was pretty cool.
I just found out from Mommy that she is coming a week from today. I can’t wait to see you. We love you so much!
