So, I haven't been very good about getting posts up on the blog. Some before and afters on the house projects are coming soon, so stay tuned! But, I thought I'd share what Ella has been up to so far this summer!
The week of July 7th, she stayed with Grandma Jolyn because Jay was out of town, and our daycare was closed! She had a great time seeing her cousins, playing at the park, helping Grandma and baking cookies!
She wrapped up Session 1 of Swimming Lessons a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, she did not pass. She's heading to another round of lessons starting next week, so I will keep my fingers crossed!! She went off the diving board in the last session (with assistance) and loved it (even though the pictures look like she's terrified!) HA! She loves to swim, I just hope she can pass the tests this time!
She's been having a great time at Sara's this summer playing with the big kids and also being a great friend to the little ones! Sara snapped this cute picture of Ella at the park last week!
I've tried to incorporate some fun activities!
At-home pedicures!
Spontaneous trips for ice cream!
Playing with homeade silly putty ("Frozen" silly putty including the all-important glitter!)
NOTE: Must wear Frozen shirt when playing with Frozen silly putty. HA!
And playing in the pool!
We have also made weekly trips to the puppet wagon shows in Rosemount, but I haven't gotten any pictures from those. Ella has a great time at the shows!
This past Saturday was a bridal shower for Jay's oldest sister, Tara. Here's Ella before she devoured the cupcake! (And she kept telling me it was decorated with a wife. Ha! I think she means bride....)
We love summer!
