"Big" cousin weekend
This past weekend we were able to scoop up Ella for a little QT with us. We picked Ella up from Grandma & Grandpa's on Friday night after our follow up visit to the Vet with Karamia. We had dinner and back to our house for a sleep over. When we got home it was Bel's bed time but she had no desire to miss out on anything Ella was doing. So DM brought LO back downstairs to join in the late night cookie baking with myself and Ella. We mixed and ate some dough and put them in the oven...With very little time from taking them off the baking sheet pooky was ready to dive in to her cookie creations. Bel was in absolute awe of her "big" cousin and watched everything she did very carefully. Eventually it was off to bed for both girls and we followed shortly after.
"Is it good morning time yet?" asked our little blue eyed niece. With a groggy reply at 5:10 I had to tell her "no, not yet." About 40 minutes later it was me, Bel and Ella in bed and DM on the couch. Ella didn't last long in there either especially knowing uncle was out on the couch in the room with the toys and TV so off she went. An hour later the Bel and I joined them for pancakes, eggs, hash browns and juice. More importantly a reintroduction to Saturday morning cartoons. Ella was so excited to eat, watch cartoons and play that we stayed in our jammies until 10!
The next adventure was painting her Disney princess picture frame that she and DM had mixed the plaster for the night before. She painted it using all kinds of colors and sparkles! Jen & Nate picked Ella up and off to the water park they headed with baby Lauren.
