Merry Cwistmas! Happy Hannukah! Ella has learned those two salutations, and uses them interchangeably. She is so full of energy, we sometimes have a hard time keeping up with her! She loves Preschool, watching "The Drinch" (Grinch), going grocery shopping (probably because she gets a free cookie at the bakery), taking walks, and has recently discovered how to open and close doors. Sigh...fortunately, she has been good about not touching the tree or the presents underneath. She knows who Santa is, but the Christmas Story is a bit beyond her. She doesn't know to ask for anything for Christmas, so I think Christmas day is going to be a fun revelation for her!

As a Christmas Surprise, my mother-in-law had pictures of Ella taken in early December.  The results are pretty darn cute!

This is one of my favorites, because it really shows her personality...little miss Chatterbox!

She can be quiet and pensive, too.  I wonder what she was thinking about?

I don't know whether she's talking or laughing--probably both!

Rob and I keep wondering how we got such a sweet, adorable little girl.  Ok, she's not always sweet and adorable--she is two, after all!
