Happy October!

Ella had her first encounter with a pumpkin last night.  She was fascinated by this strange orange orb of an object and enjoyed poking at it's eyes and mouth (much like she enjoys poking at MY eyes and mouth).  I've never been much of a fan of halloween, but I've heard it said that with kids it becomes an exciting event!  I guess we shall see.  Ella is going to be a skunk for halloween thanks to a hand-me-down costume from a friend at church.  I find it very fitting since we call her our little stinker these days anyway.  




Other significant events occurring in our little girl's life:  she started crawling about two weeks ago, she is constantly saying something though none of us are sure exactly what, she smiles all of the time and loves meeting new people, and she has started a love affair with cheerios.  If she's anything like me, this love affair will continue into her adult years:)  Just next week she will be eight months old, and a short two days later Shaun and I will celebrate our fourth year anniversary.  Wow time flies!
