Let's go running

Ella is learning how to run - bumps, falls and cries along the adventure but well worth the effort!  It's pretty fun to watch her getting a better handle at running as well as maneuvering around obstacles in her way.

On Thursday, July 19, 2012, we had a nice day at the park, storytime with friends and visited great grandpa. Lots of fun things to do and people we love to visit.

McKinley Park with Cameron and Andrew:
By far I think this is Ella's favorite spot to go.  All the ducks, geese and squirrels running around keeps her entertained and she loves to feed them.  Today was pretty funny as Uncle Johnston put her on his shoulder and chased a lot of the animals around.

Carmichael Public Library Storytime with Lily and Wyatt: After the park, we met up with Lily and Wyatt at the Carmichael Public Library Storytime.  We haven't been here in a while so it was nice to see the kids we did know and have E socialize with new ones.  Lily and Wyatt are so much fun to watch.  I hope E and W are good siblings.

  Visiting Great Grandpa Steele: Ella was awake after Storytime so we made a quick stop and visited Great Grandpa Steele.  Ella was pretty well behaved (i.e. friendly) and even allowed him to kiss her and sit on his lap.
