I went over to Molly & Erik's Saturday night so I could get in my Ellen time for the week. Mom & Dad were there to babysit, and I was just there to document Ellen and all of her hilarity!
Ellen's FAVORITE thing to play with is the chapstick from Mom's purse. Seriously. She carried these tubes around for about 45 minutes. I may or may not have found some fun flavors for Ellen's stocking. Gotta love cheap Christmas presents!
For the first time ever, Ellen let me braid her hair. I've been asking to try out my french braiding skills on her for months, but she always pushes me away. This time I tricked her into saying it was how I wear my hair. She'll do just about anything that I do! Check out those natural highlights!
Look closely ... you can see her halo. Errrr ... the pretty artwork Ellen took it upon herself to add to the kitchen walls with a pen!
The cousins having a tea party. Minnie looks less than thrilled. "Sit der, Mimmie!"
Here's Ellen playing with Mère's "yeakum" aka makeup. She's got most of the right letters, just in their own order & pronunciation.
Smiles for Mère!
Minnie DYING for some attention. As the first grandchild (dog) she's had a hard time adjusting to Ellen taking over.
"Mimmie nekkless!"
Mom attempting to stop the tears at bedtime. We were telling Ellen that she was scary in her jammies!
Time to brush teeth. She refused until I pretend brushed my teeth first ;)
Minnie wishing she was allowed upstairs with the girls. Someday, Minnie ... someday!

Looks like you did a good job. You are hired for every Saturday night - pencil it in.
Yep --- that's just the way it went. And she's getting a haircut this weekend, so no more braiding!
