EVB: 3 Years + 10 Months Old!

The countdown to 4 years old has officially begun! Ellen is starting to get excited about her upcoming birthday and, more importantly, her birthday party. As of now, Ellen is planning to have a "Madagascar"-themed party since she recently watched (and loved!) that movie.

Aside from enjoying the final weeks of being 3, Ellen has been busy enjoying the warm weather while she still can. EVB recently moved from her tiny trike to a larger, "big girl" trike. She's been working really hard on her pedaling skills and her stamina increases with each ride. (Mom and Dad are thrilled about this after one too many family jaunts in the neighborhood that included Ellen complaining she was "too tired" to pedal and resulted in us having to push and/or carry her trike home, in addition to pushing June's stroller!).

Ellen still has a wonderful imagination and is starting to get the hang of role playing during her pretend play; it's fun to hear her come up with pseudo names and storylines for herself/her stuffed animals and baby dolls.

As always, Ellen is entertaining as can be and we're relishing (mostly) every moment with our "baby" as she gets closer to being a big 4-year-old. :)
