Bananas...Take 2!

Take 2 on bananas...went a little better this time around...





She put it in her mouth a few times on her own this time around...then as you can see in the last picture it quickly became a paint brush...and then soon hit the floor...banana time was over! I then however took the other part of the banana and mashed it up really well and mixed it with some rice cereal...so look at that...she ate bananas that were NOT pureed! She did well with that...ate it right up!

Ella is CRAWLING now! She had gotten pretty good at scooting around on her belly and pushing herself backwards...on Sunday we had just gotten home from church and I took her out of her car seat and set her on the floor while I went and got lunch for her ready...while in the kitchen I grabbed the dog food and brought it out to the living room and set it on their plates....I started to walk away and I stopped and watched Ella pop up on her knees and start crawling! It was either the dog food or the dogs that enticed her! She either thought that the dogs food looked good or was just going after her dogs (she does love those dogs)! Today Josh and I had her in our bedroom on the floor and we sat apart and she crawled back and forth between us...she's not speedy...but she's getting the hang of it!

Ella had a fun game today that kept her amused for about 20 minutes...I had her sitting on my lap facing me (and I was just now getting a chance to look through the Sunday paper)...she grabbed one of the flyers out of the paper....and ripped a large piece off of it...and she held it in her hand...and kept trying to put it in MY mouth...so I pretended to take a bite out of it and made a big noise like I was getting ready to eat it...she laughed and laughed and laughed....she just thought that was the best game ever!

Ella is really enjoying her books right now....she actually likes to look at them instead of trying to eat them! :) She often will sit right in my lap and we'll read some books...as she turns the pages.

This was a cute story...I dropped Ella off at the sitters on Tuesday morning...and the kids just love Ella...they always yell ELLA when we walk in. I set her car seat down and this one little boy (probably right about 2 years old) comes running over. He brings his face down by hers and rests his head against hers...and then sits up and says, "ouch" and is pointing at Ella's hair...Beth and I start laughing...he was saying Ella's crazy hair got him! It was cute...Beth laughed and told him that Ella's hair didn't hurt him :)
