Dress Up

We've been super busy recently, just not with picture/blog-worthy activities.  But when looking through the pics in the camera this afternoon, I had a few and realized there was definitely a common theme - Ella playing dress up.  She is a bundle of entertainment these days!  One of her new words is "Barbie" and today she put on some of the dress up shoes and was walking around calling them her "Barbie shoes".  Here are some of her recent dress up adventures

 This pic is from Tyler Swann's pirate themed birthday party.  Ella had just woken up and I'm not sure she actually realized there was something on her head.  She sat there for ages.  On the other hand, Michael quickly took the stick-on beard off after the pic.  

 I guess you could say they were playing dress up in their laundry baskets.  They had a blast playing in these until Ella got stuck again.  

Another theme is Ella not ever looking at the camera, so I have a bunch of strange profile shots!

After disappearing in Addy's room for a while and being super quiet, Ella walked out decked out in nearly every bracelet we have, and a few necklaces.  Shortly after this pic, she took it all off and threw it all on the floor.  One of Ella's favorite past times is playing in Addy's jewelry box, so I can't tell you how often we pickup jewelry off the floor!
