Happy Halloween!

What a busy week! Between parties and trick or treating, our little elephant was able to squeeze in plenty of celebrating. Ella's friend, Harper, and her mom and dad joined us for trick or treating on Halloween night. Fortunately, one of the streets in our neighborhood is blocked off on Halloween, making it a great spot for trick or treating. While last year she was simply along for the ride, this year Ella was fully aware of the 'treats' (or cookies, as she still calls anything sweet). Even though we cut her off early, she was still bouncing and dancing around in the street, and really seemed to enjoy it all. Uncle Jeff and Aunt Kristin stayed with us on Friday night, and we were able to spend some much-needed time catching up and hanging out. Ella was battling her nap this weekend, so most of Saturday and Sunday afternoon were spent trying to get her to fall asleep. With her little brother's arrival only weeks away, we can't afford to lose the nap now!

She found a chair at the park, so of course she had to push it.
