Today was gorgeous!  And despite mommy coming down with an awful cold the night before, we still made time to play outside!  Ella loves riding her bike!

I know this one has stuff blown out (it was 1:00 in the afternoon), but I LOVED her smile in this one!

Today we celebrated my nephew's birthday at my sister's house.  Ella was staring intently at the candles before Nate blew them out!

My hubby and I finally had a date night out!  It was freezing out and I had a dress on so this was the best I got.  Isn't he handsome! (can you tell he hates getting his picture taken!)

When I got Ella her breakfest this morning she informed me that her penguin was very hungry.   So  I gave him some french toast and a banana too!  She loved this!  LOL!

One Hundred One

I swear I don't know why I buy this kiddo any toys.  She's been deliriously happy with just a balloon to "bop" around for weeks now.  

Look at this concentration.  Please ignore the limb chop...argh!

Our local village.  Too bad it was such a dreary day.

Not the best outfit for a photo session, but this is what I got today.  It was super rainy and dismal out so I had to make due with indoor light (hence the odd shadows...can you tell how many lights I had on?)  But I still sorta like this one.  She was being goofy, as usual!

Is this night over yet?

This is what I was popping all weekend to avoid driving my fellow nurse insane with my coughing.  I hate being sick.  Yes, that is an economy pack.

Ninety-six

Horrid...I know.  And sadly, it's not even in focus...LOL!  I think I was actually driving when I took it.  But it's a picture...  

Ninety-five

My next four posts/pictures will be BORING.  I worked all weekend and never even took my camera to work.  These are all iphone pics.  The one in my car is especially sad.  Oh well!

I actually like this one a little.  I heard my hubby and daughter playing outside while I was getting ready to leave for work.  I took it through the window (and screen, ugh.).  He was helping her work on pedaling.  It was just so sweet!  Love these guys!

Can I just make a small PSA.  Can we all just agree to turn off word verification on our blogs?  I swear...word verification makes me crazy.   Mostly because I am so bad at it!

I WANT to post comments on your blog.  I follow a lot of blogs (365 blogs and others) and when I want to comment and have to try to type in the right word/number combo about a hundred times to post a comment to your blog it makes me not want to comment anymore, on anyone's blog!

So yesterday, after trying to comment on a few blogs, I went into my own settings and GASP...I had word verification for comments turned on in my OWN blog.  Argh!  I'm so sorry.  I swear I didn't know.  I'm hoping maybe you don't know either.  I immediately turned it off so I don't have it anymore.  Comment away...LOL!    If spam becomes a major problem I reserve the right to revisit this!

Ok, on with the photos!

We went to the zoo today.  My favorite shots were from the Butterfly House!

My first attempt at a reflection shot.  Not the best, but I still like it!

I would love this shot so much more if there wasn't a line of kiddos and parents behind her!  

With this view I eliminated the line-up in the background but she decided it was a good time to start pulling up her shirt...lol!    And of course I chopped her foot.  Oiy!
