I knew this day would come...

I can't believe how proud I was when I saw this! I heard some water swashing around so I ran into the bathroom and there she was, playing in the toilet, making her mommy so proud! Yes, she was thoroughly washed immediately after. :)

As a side note: I remember when my little brother did this as a baby and it sure wasn't as gross to me then...those were the days. :)

More steps! Ellie's funny laugh :)

Ellie is now taking at least 10 steps between Matt and me...she could probably keep going but she lunges forward as soon as she's close to us. Here's a video that was taken today in nursery. She has the funniest fake laugh...it starts out real but as soon as she gets a reaction, she goes nuts "laughing"! We love her nursery leaders...they're the best!

First Steps!!!

Ellie has been taking a few steps at a time and she's so proud of herself! She walked around the yard for a long time today while I just held one of her hands. So proud!

Corn Maze

We went to the Twin Cities Corn Maze today with Mike, Niki and family! The maze was the shape of the Twins Baseball Team logo. We went around and found a bunch of clues having to do with the Twins and then Mike used my Blackberry to match the clues with the right player in hopes of winning season tickets. Mike gives us a 1 in 500 chance. We also enjoyed blue grass music and picked out some great pumpkins. Lots of fun!
