Today was a great day. It started off with Sunny cooking delicious pancakes which Ella pronounces panacakes. After the breakfast, we all took a walk to South Park because Ella wanted grandma and papa to push her on the swings. After the swings, we went downtown to do a little shopping and eat lunch. That was a bust. It was really crowded downtown and the restaurant where we wanted to eat had an hour and 1/2 wait. We came back to our neighborhood and had lunch at Amici’s. After lunch, grandma, mommy and Ella went to get some ice cream and papa and I went to the Giant’s dugout store to see if there was anything good to buy there. We didn’t find anything. Ella took a nap and we all did our own thing. This evening, we all met Aunt Abigail and Uncle Ray at Scoma’s and had a great dinner. Ella was adventurous tonight. She tried calamari, eggs, crab, and spinach salad in addition to eating her own spaghetti. Ella had chocolate ice cream for dessert and while she was eating it she declared, “I love chocolate ice cream”. We came home and saw Stella, Juliet, Ron and Helen. Ella was so happy to see the girls. We all hung out for a little while and then it was time to go to sleep. We all read books to Ella and now she is soundly sleeping. What a beautiful day and night.
