Bubbles, Paint, and Hugs

Ella has been having lots of fun getting to be outside and do fun new things. She loves blowing bubbles and says "bubbles" almost perfectly! She has been blowing on lots of things lately-she deems things "hot" and then blows on them. It's usually food but also her car seat when she gets in and it's warm outside :-)

Since Mother's Day is tomorrow Ella got to try her hand at painting for the first time. Here are the results :-)

We went to the Lakefront today and tried to feed goldfish crackers to the ducks but a turtle and some fish fought for them instead. Ella had a blast looking at all the animals-I think she's going to be like me in being fascinated by "creatures" not as much by domesticated animals. Anyway, once we were up on the grassy area she kept trying to run away from us but kept looking back every few steps to say "bye" and wave. She was cracking us up! Then she and Chris renenacted the "Hug" statue. Fun afternoon :-)
