These two adore each other. I hope they are always as close as they are now.

A few from Christmas eve...

Ella was crazy about this little guy.

Ella Claire left some special food for Rudolph.

She sprinkled and then decided to dump the whole bag.

(Not taking a chance that our house be missed. )

Ella Claire left cookies and milk for Santa and carrots for the reindeer.

more to come.....

Like Mother, Like Daughter

Since I am back in school....most days are spent just like this.....doing paper after paper, discussion boards and power point presentations. I was taking a break one night and walked back into our bedroom to find this. She watches every little move I make.

This reminded me of this song:

O be careful little eyes what you see

O be careful little eyes what you see

There's a Father up above

And He's looking down in love

So, be careful little eyes what you see

O be careful little ears what you hear

O be careful little ears what you hear

There's a Father up above

And He's looking down in love

So, be careful little ears what you hear

O be careful little hands what you do

O be careful little hands what you do

There's a Father up above

And He's looking down in love

So, be careful little hands what you do

O be careful little feet where you go

O be careful little feet where you go

There's a Father up above

And He's looking down in love

So, be careful little feet where you go

O be careful little mouth what you say

O be careful little mouth what you say

There's a Father up above

And He's looking down in love

So, be careful little mouth what you say

Sometimes I forget two little eyes are on me....all of the time!

Family....

Buddies....

My peacock....is all attitude!

Planning a birthday party.....

I can't believe I am planning another birthday party. I have planned all year long to simply do a girly cupcake theme birthday party this year. Ella Claire had other plans. She just loves Mickey Mouse... Goosey....Donald...Minnie.....Daisy.....U-toe......and Pete (and yes, it's Goosey and U-toe) So, Mickey it is........

I have to say I have found some of the cutest party items. Makes me want to go to Disney!

Invitations ordered....check
The Bounce Barn booked.....check
Now, for the menu and party bags.......


Stay tuned...:)

Character is what you do, when no one is watching.

She is getting so big.

I just thought she looked so big in this picture after church last Sunday.

She turned 21 months on Wednesday.
