3-0

I don't know how I let it happen, but I turned 30 last week. We did all sorts of things to celebrate, which made being officially old seem a little less terrible. I decided my new decade also needed a new hairdo....

Nicholas took these pictures of Ellen and I playing with her favorite toy (and my least favorite).

And here she is reading her first library book..

The days are flying by

It's already March. Summer is just around the corner (and I know this because I can feel that Spring is in the air at school... fun time of year, let me tell ya).

Ellen's been getting harder to photograph lately. She wants to see the camera the second you take it out so by the time you have it ready to take a picture, she's already stopped what she was doing and crying about not being able to have the camera. It's fun...

Here she was playing with an oven mitt like it was a giant claw. By the time I got the camera powered up, I got this shot and then this one...

This one I tried to catch her kissing the glass door...

Oh... and she got another round of school photos. This is the one we decided to keep.
