She looks so rotten in this picture..

I have had this post started for a couple weeks now, but can't seem to stop blogging about our Little Love Bug. As always Ella seems to amaze her Daddy and I more and more everyday. She is becoming such a little girl. Yes it makes me sad, but then I happy because I know she is going to be an over the top Big Girl. Her sense of humor, bubbly personality, her choice of words and facial expressions say it all. It's so hard to believe that our baby girl is going to be turning 3 before we know it. I can't believe it.

All about our Little Love Bug...

*Ella loves singing The wheels on the bus, Mary had a little lamb and Go Cubs Cubs. Let's just say every chance she gets. The child can't have the radio loud enough. She always says " turn it up a little more mommy". So cute.

*Loves swimming at her memo and papaw's house. Who would have thought she would go from being afraid of the water to jumping in and going under. Such a huge accomplishment. Mommy and Daddy are proud of you baby girl ;-)

*Loves to count, say her ABC's and pretend to read all the time. I really think the child is going to be a teacher.

*Knows when my phones rings who is calling by the number. She just amazes me.

*Ella's love for horses has become stronger than ever. She loves watching horses on TV, seeing the horses at Aunt Andrea's house and reading horse magazines with her Great papaw George.

*Loves to help me clean the house, run the sweeper and unload the dryer. Her daddy thinks she is OCD like her mommy.. HAHA

*Ella's love for her baby's brings a tear to my eye every time I see her. Her tone, choice of words and love her them is enough to make this mommy proud.

*Love taking pictures of anything and everything. It's always " you look wonderful" wonder who she heard that from.

*Her Daddy has her saying to me "One hot mama". So cute and rotten at the same time..

*Still sleeping anywhere between 10-14 hours a night.

*Takes at least one 3 hour nap a day.

*Wearing 3-4t clothes now and a size 9 shoe.

*Taking baby steps to using the BIG girl potty. She is going to give all of her diapers to Baby Claire. We shall see what that brings.

*Loves taking a bath with her mommy and rubbing down with lotion. So cute ;-)

*Still at almost 3 she loves to be rocked, sang to and held when she is going to sleep and while she is sleeping. But I guess who wouldn't right. The guy next to her is the same way.

*Love trying on clothes and shoes. The girl has at least three different pairs of shoes on a night. It's just a given.

*Ella loves to sit and chat with her doggies. It's almost as if they talk back. Heck maybe they do. HAHA

*Thinks that her daddy coaches every team we see, and rides every school bus we pass. Daddy is a super star!!

*Is still quick to tell Robbie that I'm her mommy when he goes to hug or kiss me. Let's just say that she isn't big on sharing her mommy..

*Talks on the phone as if she has done it for years and years.

I'm sure there is much more that I'm forgetting to share. Let's just say that Ella is a true blessing and we can't imagine life without her. She is awesome!!
