Just Being Me

It's a little long, but here's a glimpse of silly Ella B. A typical night at the Jaskot's. Hope you don't mind my singing...

Gator Girl

Look what Nana brought me from Florida! An alligator backpack! I wear it everywhere. Even Eli and Emma wear it. Thanks Nana!

What a Week!

Nana was on vacation, so Grammy took care of me all week. Poor Grammy, she probably needs to go into Ella detox! But we had a great week. Her twin was here visiting, so I actually had two Grammies for part of the week! How lucky can a little girl be?

At the park with Aunt Jayne. She brought me a great book and taught me some fun new songs!

On the horseys. My favorite!

Checking out my boo boo after visiting the doctor. See my baby in the picture?? Grammy got it for me and I am obsessed! I carry it around the house and rock it, sing to it, and tell everyone when the baby has "poopies."

Then, my cousin Emilia came to play. We went to the children's museum. As you can see, we were pretty tuckered out on the way home.

Look, I got a pedicure :)

Swimming with Daddy. We count to three, and then I jump in the water!


Finally, my buddy TJ turned 1! His birthday party was at a soft playroom. So fun. Like my party dress?




My second cupcake of the weekend. Shhh. Don't tell Daddy!

Happy Dada's Day!

Hope all you dadas out there are having a wonderful day! It's been a perfect weekend here -- pool time with buds Eddie and Jack, and then a baseball game today. And tonight we're off to have dinner with Grammy and Aunt Jayne!



Checking out Thomas Jefferson at the baseball game.

Picnic lunch with Eddie.

Playtime!

We've been on the move a lot recently, so it was great to enjoy a weekend at home. I got to have two playdates! The first was with my buddy Bennett, and the second was with my neighbor and best pal Zoe. Zoe and I have the exact same birthday. Isn't that crazy!?!

Enjoy snacks ("nacks") with Bennett and Emma

Yum!

Chillin' in the playroom.

Aren't we cute!

Zoe and me. We love tortilla chips!

Sharing blueberries.

Two cuties.

Practicing hugs.

And the baby stars aligned! We gave each other a great big hug!

Okay, enough hugging! :)

Working with Poppa!

Last week I got to go visit Poppa at work! As you can see, Poppa and I worked on some very important matters.

See Poppa -- the report should actually be written like this.

But we had to take a break to be silly too.

On an important call.


Then we went to lunch! I got to snuggle with Grammy.

Cheese!

Second Stop on the East Coast Coastal Tour - Kiawah

We just got back from Kiawah! Wow, I love that place! Mama's been going there since she was a little girl, so it was so special that she got to show it to her little girl!

The beach is a totally different experience when you're 16 months old. We were on the beach by 8 am :)



From Mama: I love love love this little girl!!


Mama, you know there's no lounging, right! Time to play!



Beauty queen walk :)

We rented a burley for me to ride with Mama and Dada around the island. I LOVED it! Everytime we left the villa I asked to get on the bikes!

In my alligator gear. We saw alligators! It was awesome!

I don't know what this face is.

Looking for birds with Daddy.

Giving mama kisses. I love to give kisses and hugs!





Hangin' at the pool.

Lounge lizard.






Not sure what these looks are all about. Practicing our devious looks?

Told you I love to give hugs!

And kisses!

Living the life.

Watermelon! My favorite!

Mom and Dad took me to an alligator talk. I wasn't so interested in that, but did love the alligator purse they bought me!

Sassy! (yeah, I fell and scrapped my cheek :( Too much fun!)


Mom's holding on tight, but I want to see those alligators!

Back in the burley!



A trip to the beach is not complete without ice cream!


Daddy took a picture of me when Mama took my pigtails out. Doesn't he know you don't take a picture of a girl when she's not primped and ready!!

We went to a sunset concert and I got my groove on and danced with Mama, Dada, and some other kiddos. So fun!



Check out my moves!

Wow - that was awesome!!! Mom and Dad, when can we go back!!
