EVB: 4 Years + 10 Months Old!

Ellen is BEYOND excited about being *this* close (picture EVB with her little thumb and index finger almost touching) to being 5 and can't wait to be "a whole hand" old. While she waits anxiously for Oct. 27, Ellen has been busy sneaking in outdoor activities as the summer weather dwindles ... She's still enjoying riding her bike and scooter, playing on our play set, swimming in Omma & Boppa's pool and climbing to the very top of the giant rope web at "Spiderman Park" near our house. Ellen continues to be a drama queen and martyr, so we've been working on appropriate ways to express our feelings. (It's a work in progress.) In other news, Ellen is looking forward to starting preschool in the Frog Room and she recently spent the day at Minnesota State Fair for a special date with Mom & Dad. It's good to be Ellen and almost 5 years old!

Ellen remembered these free apple magnets in the Horticulture Building from last year and her 2014 fair experience wasn't complete until we located them and chose just the right ones to bring home.
