Ella playing...

Luke was packing...I was working, Ben was watching tv. The next thing we knew it an hour had past and Ella played all by herself the entire time. What a good girl!

Day with Grandma Betsy

We took Ben ice skating in Boulder and visited with Grandma Betsy as well. It was a fun day.

Ben ice skating with daddy!

Here are some pictures of Luke and Ben ice skating. Ben had a blast as you can see.

Ella is sitting up!!

Here is a video of Ella sitting up and knocking down these buckets. She does it everytime you stack them for her. She is also babbling a little bit in this video... I can't believe she'll be 5 months tomorrow!

Do I dare post this?

Ahh...the innocence of a child.
