**Alert: Quite possibly the longest, full of everything random post, ever!**
We have been in potty-training pergatory since my last brief (ha!) post. Tons of issues with Ms. Ella. She's gotta be the most difficult child ever to potty train. She holds it...and holds it...and holds it. FOREVER! Anyway, less talking, more pictures. Hope everyone is doing great!
Few weekends ago - Annie's bachelorette party in northern Wisconsin. WOW - have you ever been? I don't think I can do it again. Very interesting peeps. This random picture makes me laugh - it's Lizzy & Debbie getting the rental pontoon. I have NO idea why I thought this picture would be incredible. It's clearly very random. I guess that's what cucumber infused vodka will do!
On a pontoon....
Ella after her very first dental exam. They counted teeth, "painted" her teeth with cherry flavored flouride and gave her all kinds of goodies. It wasn't easy by any means, but she's been much better about brushing now.
Showing off the pearly whites.
Ms. Ella giving us some attitude, which is becoming more prominent now that we've entered the terrible 3s. I'm sorry but who decided that a 2 year old was worse than a 3 year old?!
Friday night Twins game 7/27. It was a gorgeous night for outdoor baseball. We had a great time and the home team even pulled out a win!
Annie's Abbas family bridal shower was on Sunday 7/29. Tara & I were the hostesses. A few pics from the shower:
Dum Dum sucker centerpiece for the large table. I saw this on Pinterest a while ago and thought it was adorable! I also made these marshmellow wedding cake pops. How cute are they?!? Love them. Again, Pinterest.
I was in charge of games - here's one of the games I put together.
Who has the Groom? I think it turned out cute!
I made a coffee filter wreath tinted yellow as part of the decor.
Loving it! I need to make one for my house now!
We celebrated Jay's birthday on 7/31. I made a special request pie, which was delicious! Sort of like a Snickers bar. It was fun to make too! I haven't made a pie forever (well, since apple pie last fall)!
Birthday dinner at Houlihan's.
Ella & Jay after gift opening. A few weeks ago, I asked Ella what she wanted to get Daddy for his birthday. She kept telling me she wanted to get him a teddy bear with pink on it. I searched and couldn't find one so we drew him a pink teddy bear instead. :)
Here's Ella trying to swipe Jay's bday money!!
Pedicure time again - it cracks me up how she totally gets into the relaxing part when her feet are in the bubbles!
Making a bulletin board with Daddy at Home Depot on 8/4.
She did some painting and hammering this time!
