Sweet Ellie

I sure do love my Ellie. She is so cute, sassy, and full of life! Since her brothers were born she has definitely had to adjust to a new family dynamic. I'm trying to help her have a role in this "circus" we now call normal, but it's not always easy. One thing is for sure...she LOVES her brothers and they are crazy about her.

Ellie is so darn smart. She loves preschool. I love to hear all the things she learns there. Last week she was so excited to learn about Johnny Appleseed. She loves to practice writing her name and is improving all the time. Look out kindergarten!

Ellie loves to play with the kids in her class and around the neighborhood. Her favorite friends are Dax, Camryn, Gabby, both McKells, McKenna, Brinley, Weston, Carson, Hunter, and Braxton. Not a day goes by that she doesn't ask for a friend over. Last week she was lucky enough to get to swim with Dax and Weston.

Ellie has a very special relationship with her Grandma's. Each morning she wants to call them just to say good morning. Of course she has their phone numbers memorized. (Again, what a smartie..) Last week at Grandma Jean's she found something on the floor. She was sure it was a "butterwig." She loves doing crafts with her cousins at Grandma Jean's. Especially after Grandma has the latest and greatest from the dollar store. There's always someone to play with at Grandma Teresa's. And Ellie is usually the center of attention. It doesn't get any better than that in her world.

Ellie Joy is just that...a JOY!
