Halloween Cuisine

I made Ella her festive Halloween meal on Tuesday night because we have so many festivities at the end of the week. They are called "Freaky Fingers" but I thought they looked a little more like mummies. They turned out really cute! They were quite tasty with a little "blood" on top! I thought she would love them but not so much. However, I did manage to get her to eat them when I separated the hotdog from the crescent. Oh well, so much for trying!

Sick day

Scott stayed at home with Ella today because she was sick and I came home to find that they were still in their pajamas and they had been making balloon animals. I thought they were so cute, especially the giraffe! I think he had more fun than she did!

Mums and pumpkins and cookies!

I love Fall! I love the chill in the air and mums and pumpkins and warm cookies! This is such a fun time of year and I am really enjoying it this year with Ella. Ella loves cookies too as you can tell above. Here are just a few pictures of us around the house enjoying Fall!

USC vs. LSU

Ella stayed up a little past her bedtime last night to help us cheer on the Gamecocks. She was so cute saying "Go, Gamecocks!"

Fall Fair

We took Ella to the fair for the first time twice this week! She had so much fun on the rides. Her favorite was the carousel.

Bird Feeder

Ella made a pinecone bird feeder at daycare and we decided to hang it up in the backyard for the birdies. We found the perfect place for it on our holly tree. We can't wait to watch the birdies enjoy their seeds!

Potty Time

I have to share our potty experience with you! We have been sitting Ella on the potty each night before she takes a bath to get her used to it. Sunday night I sat her on there and she went poo-poo in the potty! We got so excited and Ella just thought it was the greatest thing. I don't think she understands exactly what the potty is yet but when we sit her on there she does say "pee-pee" and "poo-poo" so we are getting close to start really potty training. I know this was just a random coincidence but we were super excited!
