This has been a full week of a lot of beautiful friends and family. Nikki B left of Monday morning and we opened presents with Stella and Juliet on Monday evening (Helen gave all 3 girls this amazing thick, soft robe with their names on it) the girls weren’t very cooperative for the camera that night so stay tuned for a bathrobe picture. In the evening, we had Chinese food and music at our house with Phyllis, Michael, Dave, Karen, Kate and Julie. It was a really sweet night filled with fun and music. This morning, Grandma and Papa arrived for a whole week! Ella is walking on cloud 9. Tomorrow we get to see Jesse and Heather who are in town for a few days.

Papa and Ella looking at a display window – Ella told a story to Papa here. She said, “When I was a little baby, I was in a purple car…I drove the car”

Pure bliss
