Here are some pictures from the past few days. It seems like every moment of our time is crammed into a few hours. This week we have been trying to organize the downstairs. We were going a little crazy with Ella’s stuff everywhere. Last night I built these two shelves while Ella was sleeping. Tonight I built a toy chest. Ella was awake when I started my project so she wanted to help me…boy did she help. She helped me with the wooden pegs, the screws and the washers. She was so into it. It was a lot of fun to do such a big project with Ella.
Ella in the hallway the other morning. I wonder what’s so funny.
One smiley girl going to school this morning.
Hannah, one of the kids in the building came down with her mom and brother to share a cake that they baked. Ella loves playing with Hannah.
