Ellie Dresses the Family!













Before Chris came home from work on Friday, Ellie wanted us all to get dressed up for "Daddy". She picked out all our outfits (except Kevin's PJs). Kevin is wearing Ellie's coat and a her Belle panties. I am wearing a polka dotted shirt with a flower skirt. Ellie thought we all looked so good! Do you think she has a future in fashion??


I still crack up every time I look at Kevin in these pictures. It's just hillarious. I don't know why he is standing like such a statue, but it just makes me laugh!!

Ellie loves to get dressed up for Chris when he comes home from work. Very cute!

Kevin on the Computer



We normally have the computer "caged" off by the baby cage. But today, we left it open on accident, and I found Kevin in the chair like this when I returned to the room!

Kevin Plays in the Sink







Kevin loves running water. He is short on smiles in these photos because he had greater than 103 fever for 4 days this week!
More than a few times each day, I catch him in the bathroom, on a stool, with the sink turned on! When he sees me doing the dishes, he immediately grabs his red chair and brings it over.

A funny thing about Kevin, though, is that he doesn't like bubbles at all! He has never had a bubble bath until last week. I guess I'm a little bit of a mean mom, but all the bubble bath I have seen contains lots of fragrance (and phthalates), so I don't use it for bathtime. When he was sick earlier this week, I decided that a bubble bath might be fun for him! He cried and tried desperately to get the bubbles off - rubbing and touching his arms and legs! I forgot about this and filled the sink up with bubbles a few days ago for him to play. He again seemed afraid of the bubbles and wanted them OUT of the water!

Chris Reading to Ellie and Kevin


Kevin has decided that he wants to be part of Ellie's evening story time. He usually only lasts a few minutes before he starts climbing all over everyone and pulling down the blinds! On this night, the story time was in the living room, but as you can see, Kevin has already lost interest!

Ellie and Maddox

Ellie Rides Her Bike




Ellie loves her bike. She carefully rides it to SMU around and around the fountain! Over and over again! But she remembers the spot where she almost fell, and always carefully gets off her bike and walks her bike over the "dangerous" spot!
She also likes the park her bike with all the other bikes!
