Ellie is at it again...

The kids and some friends were out playing with water guns and the like and when clean-up and dinner-time call came they were less than thrilled. Zack and Jake rogered-up pretty quickly but Ellie pulled out all the stops.

Long story short we were almost done with dinner when she finally decided, after a few time-outs and getting her pjs on for bed, that she would in fact clean-up all Jake's rocks she had dumped out all over the front porch.

After a while Sam went out to check on her (things were going a little too well if you know what I mean) She was cleaning up alright ... along with the help of two second grade boys!!

While we are not sure of her exact tactics we imagine it went something like this ...

Standing in her 'Ellie pose' with her weight shifted mostly on one hip, with a very pretty two dimpled smile resting on her perfect complexioned blue eyed face with her lovely curly blond hair waving in the wind, she offered her famous and extremely adorable "Hi guys!" and the rest was history. Including two second grade boys groveling on the ground picking up every last rock!

Let's just say that we completely realize that if she's like this at two we are in for the ride of our lives :o) Our only hope is that Addie doesn't learn from her. If you all want to start a fund so that we can send her to some all girls school in Antarctica that would be great!

Oh it's great to be parents :o)
Amy and Sam :o)
