Hello world! Are you out there?

Ella is going through a shouting phase.  These days I find her wanting to stand in front of the door and shout.  Not sure what she is saying or who she is shouting to but it's pretty fun to watch.

Toys toys toys

Ella loves her toys and never seems to be bored with them.  I need to rotate them out soon as I don't want her to be obsessive with a certain toy.

Not only does she love her toys, she loves all of William's (aka her old toys) toys.  She continues to enjoy new things such as balloons!

You can never give a kid enough toys.
