Ellie is "????"

Do you ever have those days where people just come up to you and say, "guess what your daughter did" Or "Guess what I caught your daughter doing" Or "Guess what your daughter said" Etc... Well with my little Ellie Bug I get all the above ALOT!



She is my dreamer! She is my dancer! She is my imaginary girl! She loves to dance! She loves to sing! She loves to tell "jokes"! She LOVES to watch herself in the mirror! She has a LOT of sass to her. She loves life.



This all started happening last year around Christmas time when Ellie did her ballet performances and started asking everyone for their approval. Of course I really didn't notice that she was making such a production over things that she did. But she was. She is always trying to find acceptance and approval. I love her sweet spirit and the ability to always keep people guessing. I love that she wears her heart on her sleeve and is SOOOO protective of her sister. She just makes me proud to be her mommy!

Valentine's Surprise(s)

02/12/2011
On Saturday we got some very speical packages in the mail from my Mom and Sister. We weren't expecting anything but sure enough the mail lady laid on her horn and I had to go and meet her outside. Ellie was in HEAVEN! Jayci was having a nap so of course Ellie ate most of the M&M's before Jayci could get to them. They loved their treats and surprises and played with them all day! Can't you tell how excited Ellie was! She was all about pulling faces while I tried to snap a few pictures. Jayci is also a little cheese ball when the camera comes out!

The two cutest girls I know!

Feety Pajama's

I wanted a picture of the girls together in their feety pj's and this is all I could get. They would NOT cooperate. But I think they are still cute. I gotthe girls these feety pj's for 2 dollars at walmart and they have lived in them for three days. So I have them in the washer and I'm sure Ellie will want them on again tonight. SHE LOVES THEM. I have never bought them for her cause I didn't want her to have an accident. Figuring she wasn't smart enough to unzip them and get them off to go potty I have never bought them for her. But little did I know that she would love them and not have a single problem. I feel like the older that Jayci is getting the more her and Ellie are starting to look alike.










Fun in the Tub...

Jayci is my bath baby. I could of said that about Ellie too till she was about two then it all went down hill from there. But with Jayci I can put her in the tub with no water and all her cloths and she'll play in there for hours. I can put he rin the tub with water and she'll play for hours. She just LOVES being in the bathtub. When she is driving me crazy and destroying everything in her path I usually put her in the bath and she is content till I can get caught up cleaning behind her. I also love that she plays with and loves on her baby. It so cute when you ask her where the baby is she will go find it and pucker up with her big fish kisses and go to town on her. I just love this chubby little baby!

Agra Action

2/4/2011
Agra-Action is an annual event at our house every year. This year Brant rode down with us to meet up with Leslie and the kids. We had a great time as usual and enjoyed the company. I have loved watching Ellie and Tragen together. They are such good friends and are always giggling about something.
This year they had an exhibit with a random bunch of things including soap made out of "who knows what" and they had a few bum sheeps. ELLIE WAS IN HEAVEN, they let her crawl in the pen with them and love on them as long as she wanted. Bum lambs need stimulation so she was happy to do so. I wish I would of got a picture. She was pretty cute being their mother hen for awhile!

Two cute Bums!

I had them dressed as twins this day. Of course they would no cooperate to take a picture together so the best I could get of them holding still was of Ellie rinsing the dishes while Jayci tried to pry the locked cupboard door open. I love that no matter where Ellie is Jayci is and where Jayci is Ellie is. Wether they are loving on eachother or fighting it seems like they are always together. When ever Jayci has a nap Ellie always asks, "when is Jayci getting up she sleeps forever!"

14 Months and Counting

2/1/2011
I cannot believe baby girl is already fourteen months old. She is quite the entertainer and keeps us hopping everyday.
As of this day she was 24 lbs and 34 inches long.
She is getting in her K9's which is causing ear infections, which leads to no sleep. Soon she will have 12 teeth to bite with. YIKES!
She turns into a crazy girl at dinner, she is out of control and loves to make us laugh when were sitting down to eat as a family. Her favorite thing to do is give us "the look" when she is trying to eat.
She still thinks Ellie is the most fantastic thing on the face of the planet.
She loves to give kisses and puckers up with HUGE fish lips when it's time.
We sure love this little girl and can't believe how fast time is flying by.
(Can you tell that her and Pete LOVE THE TOILET!)

Ellie Funnies

"Conversation with Granny June"

Granny get's out of the car and says "I need to use the rest room."

Ellie says "You need to go potty?"

Granny "Yes"

Ellie says "Okay I'll take you."

(Granny could not even tell me the story because she was laughing to hard. I thought it was so cute she wanted to help.)



"Sacrament Meeting 08/09/08"

Ellie "Mom where is your bag"

Dad "Do you want a snack?"

Ellie "Yeah" Cough Cough Cough
Dad preceeds to get her a treat but she started gaging a little bit. Chokes spits up a little bit, and Layne catches it in his hand.
Ellie (look of disgust) "Dad go throw it in the gabage that is DISGUSING"
So Layne gets up and washes his hands.
(I about peed my pants laughing)


"This Morning 08/18/09"

I was in the kitchen making hot chocolate. Which I LOVE. Ellie decides she wants some to. But I was watching my TV show and told her to wait a minute. She was not going for that so she grabbed my arm and says "Pease Mom your the best". I love it when she says that, how can you tell her to hold on then?!



"On our way home from Twin. 8/22/09"

Ellie was whinny in the back seat and Layne started to mimic her and she got really mad and said. "Dad quit being a whiner."



"Tonight sitting on my lap in the Kitchen 9-08-09"

Ellie: I wanna get married

Mom: dieing of laughter "what did you say"

Ellie: I wanna get married

Dad: Not till your thirty!

Ellie: Ok



10/05/09

All of us playing make believe after dinner?!

Ellie: Mom you be Ellie, I'll be Dad and Dad be mommy because you have a Belly like mommy... (I laughed so hard)

So she wanted some dinner and said while deepening her voice "Darlin bring me some dinner"

We were laughing way to hard to keep playing... She was on one that night



12/02/09

After bringing Jayci home from the hospital.

Ellie: Mom why is Jayci eating your boob?(said so disgustedly)

Mom: because that is how she gets her food.

Ellie: Can she eat my boob?

Getting ready for church.

I curled Ellies hair this morning and put a cute flower in it. She was wearing a new dress with her boots. I told her she looked rockin. She says "yeah i'm rockin" I tried to get her to put her coat on but she said "no mom I want to show dad how fashionable I am" Seriously what three year old talks like that.
02/08/10
Setting the scene: Ellie walks out of my room with just a t shirt on. I ask her. Where are your pants. She says: Mom their wet! well why or they wet. With her hand on her hip and shaking her finger at me she says "Because moder I had an Asserdent"
