A few things about little miss Lila Jean:

She has become a picky eater, no fruit and few vegetables

Loves carrots

Adores her Aunty Stephie and started calling her "Effy"

Like to talk on the phone, holds it up to her ear and starts chatting

Says Ellie but it is always in a yell

Is very vocal and loud

Sings along when we sing to her

She is quite the drama queen

Is starting to walk

Climbs up the stairs, and is very proud of herself for doing so

Finally takes a bottle

Loves to be outside

Hates wearing anything on her head, head bands, hair bows and hats are all a no go

Does not like to get dressed

Her favorite past time is unloading clothes from laundry baskets or her dresser

Absolutely loves her big sisters

Ellie's 6!

For Eliana's birthday this year she got to have her first "drop of party". She was so excited to have all of her friends come over. She knew what kind of party she was going to have back in January, so I had been coming up with ideas since then. the theme she picked was Barbie and all she wanted to do was "craft" with her friends. I made Barbie bottle caps and they made their own necklaces. We played pin the sunglasses on Barbie, both my girls totally cheated, opened presents and of course had snacks and cupcakes. By far my favorite part of the party was the life sized Barbie box Nick made. Each of the kids, including my Nephew who was the only boy, got dresses up as a Barbie and posed in the box for a photo. Even some of the adults got in on the action. She had a great time and I think the other kids did too. Happy Birthday Ellie!
