Our girl is getting bigger. She's a big thinker, feels things deeply and expresses herself and her feeling so well. I've been jotting some of her quotes down over the last month and told myself I need to post these! But first here are some latest drawings with specific descriptions brought to you by Ella herself.


Ok, first let me clear something up. Our daughter does not watch Sponge Bob nor would she choose to if we let her. I have no explanation as to why she drew this elaborate Sponge Bob Family but here it is. Maybe she caught an episode at Grandmas on Nick Jr? I love her and her creative mind!!

Sponge Bob is in the middle. On the bottom is his crab friend..that's what she said it was. The characters on the left are husband and wife sea people and the figure on the right...well, that's a dot to dot drawing for me that she created. Fun for Mommy. 

This drawing she did for JM's cousin Beth who visited us last weekend. She drew a picture of this little doggie on this fancy doilie. I love the dog's nose. She really captured it!

Quotes by Gabriella Milan

Me:Yes, He is.

G:Probably when we're old.

Me:Well, He can come anytime. He could come tomorrow.

G: (pause) Maybe Jesus can stay over night with us.

G: (Talking about Cinderella) Mom, why is her name Cinderella?...because she sins?

G: (sigh) Grandma, I'm perplexed.

Grandma: (trying not to choke from laughter) Why?

G: Sometimes Grandpa watches Football, then sometimes he watches Baseball...

Grandma: Well, in the fall Football is on TV, in the Summer Baseball is on TV....Gabriella, what does perplexed mean?

G: It means I'm all mixed up.
