This past week, Ella stuck her toes in the ocean for the first time! (Seriously, what is better than sandy baby feet!) We enjoyed a wonderful, relaxing, fun and food filled week in Duck at the Outer Banks in North Carolina. Ella got to spend time with her grandparents, Aunt Farrell, Uncle David, and THREE great grandparents - Great Papa Evans, GG Evans and Great Grandmom Kitchen. What a lucky duck!Because it rained the first day, we started Ella off in the pool instead of the ocean. She did well, but did wonder why the bathtub was so big and cold.
Ella was the center of attention all week - literally! She ate most meals with us seated in her bumbo and would babble away. I am sure by the end of the week she wished we had gotten flowers as a centerpiece instead.
Mom, please get this crab off my head!
She got to spend some quality time with all three great-grandparents. Again, what a lucky girl!
And then it was time for the beach...

Lots of cool hats.
Ella wants a beach chair. This doesn't quite cut it. 
Ella's expression says it all.
Big feet, little feet.
