Big Girl

Lately Ella wants to do everything by herself, including getting into and onto things she shouldn't. We have been having fun with her new found adventurous side. Here she is standing on her train (daddy was watching her).

She has also been climbing into the cabinets whenever she can and into the bin we have by the front door (we keep shoes in it). Today I caught her in the shoe bin, she was in there face first, with the shoes still in there too. She wasn't fussing so I let her figure it out by herself and in a second she was sitting up and so proud of herself.






















We have a busy few days coming up here. Tomorrow is Ella's Halloween party at the gym daycare. She gets to dress up for it and everything. I'll have pictures soon. Then Friday is Daddy's birthday and Adam will be babysitting her for a little while while we go out to a bar. On Saturday is the Spooky Zoo at Lincoln Park Zoo, we are looking forward to that if the weather stays decent.
