Summer time is here. Wait, it's gone.

We had some great weather and then it was the pits. But at least we're spending more time outside where Ella can play on her swing and slide, collect rocks and pull plants out of the garden. Ella loves the slide her Grandad Cooper made her.

Also a huge thanks to Aunt Shirley who made Ella a fantastic stool. Its in one of these shots but it's tough to see because it matches our new carpet almost perfectly (how did you know Shirley??).

Ella is learning more words and is becoming a bit of a ham. When I help her with her puzzle, instead of putting th pieces in their places, she puts it in the wrong spots and makes a "No?" kind of sound before moving it to the next wrong spot. She knows exactly what spot they all go in. Clever kid.
