Happy Birthday Ellie!






Ellie turned two yesterday, the 23rd. Time flies! She's still our Ellie baby though. Even Kaden still calls her that, it's cute. The kids had a fun day. We decorated the house with balloons and My Little Pony stuff because Ellie's into horses lately. We went out to eat at Senor Iguanos where Ellie ate lots of chips ("bips"), olives and chocolate milk which are some of her favorite foods. Then we went to McKee's Petting Zoo to see some real horses. The kids loved it --the puppies were their favorite. Then we had cake and presents at the house. Ellie liked all of her presents and even let Kaden open some. We got her the tricycle and helmet. She's been asking for one for a while because she was just using Kaden's old one and Minnie chewed one of the handles off. Here's some Ellie 101: Her favorite color is pink, she always wants the pink one. She has to wear bows in her hair everyday. Her best friend is Kaden and she does whatever he does all day. She has a BIG sweet tooth (like mom) and is not afraid to try anything. She still sucks her index finger to fall asleep and loves to share--even her chocolate milk with dad! She has huge brown eyes that melt dad's heart and has everyone wrapped around her finger. It takes quite a bit to make her laugh and she never smiles for the camera. Her nicknames are Ellie Baby and Ellie Belly. We are so glad that she is in our family and love her sweet and sassy ways! We love you Ellie!
