Oooh-ee, look at those eyes.

Kindergarten Ella

Time flies! Ella just finished her first quarter of kindergarten. Not surprisingly, she's rocking it- having a great time, lots of friends, and is sounding out words and writing like a pro. She makes this parenting thing pretty darn easy. Lately, Ella has been spending a lot of time working on complicated art projects. Clearly she did not inherit her artistic skills from her mother.

The detailed morning list-making, is another story...probably genetic (see exhibit A below). Note the awesome phonetic spelling in the above list- Ella did this all on her own. Myooseum (museum), Rumba wok Dewey (remember to walk Dewey), and my favorite, Ho Foods (Whole Foods).

Favorite room, favorite person

We love our new kitchen almost as much as we love Anna. Thanks for coming to visit and baking such tasty treats with Ella! Dewey is still waiting at the booth for his next cookie.

New digs!

We know that being busy is no excuse... after all, as Margie always says, everyone's busy. We are still here and doing just fine! We've got some new digs- moved a few blocks over in our same fantastic neighborhood. I thought I had more pictures than these random few of the backyard and dining room- sorry! Unpictured highlights include a bright yellow front door and Moses' very own room (that's right, he graduated from his crib in our closet!. !).
