New Cousin!

We got to meet our new niece/cousin Izabella. She's adorable and Ellen loved that there's another cousin! Ellen is already able to pronounce her name (Izzie) which is good considering that she calls herself "Eye-Nah." Next summer the whole family will get together again and there will be a total of 6 grandkids running around. 4 girls, 1 boy and 1 to be determined.

Ellen's always had issues sleeping, but lately nap time has become an issue. Previously she would play and then go to her "bed" when she couldn't keep her head up. Now she's so resistant to napping that she falls asleep at any random spot.

We went to the pumpkin patch the other day. Ellen found the smallest and saddest looking pumpkin possible and she wouldn't leave without it. She's such a care taker.
