Happy Birthday, Daddy!!!
Play-Doh
What a "Meh"!
We have the good fortune of having professional painters in the family. My poor parents work every time they come to visit! They told us to choose a room, so we got to have them paint our living room.
Ellison seemed to enjoy having this strange messed-up area to explore for a few days. It was a new world to her. She was very helpful, trying to sweep up messes and supervise the painters. She was so proud that Grandma actually let her paint with the real stuff!

Easter Sunday
A Playhouse?
The gang even brought this cool "playhouse" for Ellison to hang out in - their van. Ell had so much fun walking around in it once all the paint supplies were taken out. When I tried getting her out of it after a while, she kept shaking her head, telling me "No". She even had a bit of papparazi during the fun.
The Arrival
Ellison got to stay up past her bedtime so she could see the weary travelers when they got here. She was very sweet with them. She gave each of them kisses, and then had a field day getting all kinds of gifts from them.
Needless to say, she let us know that she didn't want to be in her bed after that.

Waiting...
Trying to pass the time as we anxiously awaited the arrival of Grandma, Papa, & Grandma Yvonne, who were coming to visit us. The 11.5 hour drive took them almost 15 hours on the way here due to a traffic jam! Ellison was content drawing on the sidewalk with chalk, and getting rides in her car. Lovin' this spring weather!



Easter Goodies
Ellison's Abuelo, Abuela, Aunt Ana, & Aunt Marie sent her all kinds of wonderful gifts for Easter. She was so excited when the first thing she saw was this squishy chick. She immediately hugged him & rocked back & forth.Preparing for Easter
It was fun this year having Ellison be interested in preparing her Easter basket. She was fascinated by the "grass", and was placing just a few strands at a time in the basket. Since she didn't seem to want to place the plastic eggs in the basket, I took it upon myself, and she quickly started taking them back out of the basket, but then eventually gave up.


A New Hat
Couldn't resist - Elli looks so tiny to have a bike helmet, that it made us laugh. Now we can strap her onto our bike & go on bike rides in the park. The photos (not posted) following these pics, though, show Ellison crying. Apparently she doesn't feel this "hat" is as fashion-forward as her others.
