Ella Is the big 4 now!

Ella is ready to grow up!

So on Saturday I get this postcard from Ella's Dr. wishing her a happy birthday! So I tell her about it and give it to her telling her it was a little early. She was so excited that she hugged it and carried it all day. Every time I would stop at a red light or park she would show people her post card and tell them that they were invited to her birthday party. We went to Jen's house and she had to show them! Ella is a birthday fanatic! she loves the cake the song the presents the fact that every one gets cake on other peoples birthday. She thinks that all birthdays are amazing and when it is her turn all the better!

When I first told her her birthday was a month away and that she would turn 4 she said I don't want to be that old! She was happy With being 3 she thought that is was a good age and wouldn't mind staying that age. I think that turning 4 has grown on her and she is ready. Plus she realized that she would have a party! so now she is counting down the days to her birthday!

the final dress up...Halloween day!

Halloween was funny this year.
Last year it was a new experience for Ella that she didn't forget from last yr. She counted the days down...asking every day if this was the day to Trick or treat!

Brandon didn't mind dressing up and even left his hat on every time we dressed him up! I think it was because he was to busy getting sweeties from every one!

Brandon was not sure he was into the trick or treating...we hit a couple of doors where no one was home and he thought we were nuts walking to every house and just knocking on doors and leaving.... UNTIL we got that first bit of candy and then he had an Epiphany! He then ran to every door. Yes Ran. he knew that these people were handing out free candy and mom and dad were OK with that! What is better than that??? he even learned to Say trick or treat Because the people thought it was so cute they would hand him HAND FULLS of candy ( smart kid)!

Ella on the other hand was done after about an hour and didn't even care if she went to any more doors!

Brandon was mad about his 5 o'clock shadow!

there they are...so Cute!

Ella's fashion sence!!!

Ella came to me after breakfast with the tie dye tights and shorts and tells me this is what she wants to wear today. So I tell her to go grab a shirt and she got into her closet and grabbed the shirt and the little sweater jacket. I thought she looked adorable...here she is in her first amazing outfit!

notice the high school musical pin in her shirt...she also picked that out too!

she is such a poser! every time I get the camera out she tilts her head in exaggerated ways...

I did...Did you???

I let my opinion be heard!!!

It is election day make sure that if you can vote...you let your voice heard!!!!
