Sitting on Rocks



Sometimes when we go places, I want to remember them for a later photo session either for Ellie and Cooper or for another family.  This was one of those occasions.  I told Ellie she didn’t have to look at me as I was just taking a sample photo which worked out well as she was lost in thought.

Ellie’s Words “Bits”



“It’s the Dora downloaded, so no worries”

On the way home from the supermarket last night, Ellie wanted to watch a video on my phone, and that is what she said to me.  This follows a discussion I had with her a few days ago about watching on-line videos on my phone while out of the house.  I have been trying to explain how the videos get to the phone and how the “bits” are more expensive when we are not at home.  

Doggy Bonnie



Doggy Bonnie, named after my parents dog, is still loved by Ellie.  He normally sleeps with Ellie along with 4 to 6 other special animals.  Doggy Bonnie now chases Cooper around the house as he is scared of any stuffed animals.

Sleep Over



Ellie loves sleep overs and she really likes to have breakfast at their house.  She always asks if she is going to stay for breakfast.    I am never very sure about her packing but she does bring things that are important to her.

Aquarium





The aquarium is one of Ellie’s favorite places to go.  This was the second place she picked to go with Grandma and Granddad.  She was lucky enough to be chosen to feed the eels along with touching sea creatures and measuring herself on the shark wall.

At the Beach





I can’t remember a time when Ellie turned down a trip to the beach.  The whole family took a walk along a beach we use to take Ellie to when she was smaller than Cooper.  Ellie didn’t remember this beach but she had a lot of fun.  Yes, she even got wet!
