busted!

 ellie loves going through my purse. i find her at least once a day going through it; as well as the diaper bag!
she also loves to pick up her shoes and carry them around
sigh
adorable to watch!

she's laughing!  tossing her head back and laughing!

but the big news round here is  ellie added another word to her daily vocab, which is mama, dada, yaya, ohoh! and hi!  to make her first sentence this morning!

we were doing our morning snuggles (nate likes to watch the kids catch the bus in  my bed) ellie was in the bed with me, nate walks in and ellie says "hi yaya!"

her first words are not about me, but nate!  my heart.

nate said "mom, did you hear that? she said hi yaya"  it was clear as anything

my dolly is growing up

things are starting to settle around here. chris came home sun. he was away last week in sasky visiting and having the best vacation.  i didnt blog about being alone with the kids for eternity...hahaha......for safety reasons.  but he's home now and we are slowly settling back into life as a family again

i will say that the week went by really well with out chris. haha.  we told nate that he was the man of the house and with that role comes responsibilities and freedom....he was allowed to sleep in my bed every night (me love!) and stay up late but he had to not give me a hard time with school....which was the area i was most concerned about....he didn't!  it was the best school week.  yeah nate! 

chris had the best time, i am so glad he did.  he was super busy visiting and reconnecting with old friends.  can't believe we've been gone for 8 yrs!  crazy!

and with that we start another week!
