not quite what we were working toward

for a couple of months now, elle has mastered knowing where her ear is. and she knows where "ellie's belly" is, too.

over the weekend, elle decided she'd let us know where her nose is. that's right. "elle, where's your nose?" now elicits a response of showing us her nose - and not her ear (which was previously the response you'd get). the downside of our smart little cookie knowing where her nose is that now she's discovered there are two orifices there that her fingers will neatly fit!

spooooky!


this is scary stuff, people. i can assure you the only time my child will be dressed under my supervision - or my dollar - in this color combination is when her dayschool says "no halloween costumes, but please dress your child like she's a highway construction worker or like she is preparing to go hunting wild game in a Southeast Oklahoma pasture...um, in orange & black". oops. did i say that out loud? my sincerest apologies to my friends who are flawed with the cowboy fever.


elle was a monkey for halloween (appropriate, given her affinity for bananas). she surprised us and actually wore the costume. but, she wasn't so fond of the trick or treating. maybe next year.

while daddy's away...

why play with these?:



when you can play with this?!:


does anyone see the "hair horns" on her head? she was definitely a little devil tonight and her hairdo proves it!

and because you haven't seen jack in awhile (this was the look on his face while the laundry basket was on her head):
