So...my sweet little 4 year old is just growing up so fast and I wanted to be able to remember what her little daily routine was at this age so I thought I should take some pictures and write down her schedule and the things she loves to do...
Ella is usually up no later than 7:30 am everyday and I am lucky enough to get a giant hug the minute she wakes up. Every morning we start the day off with chocolate milk... its her fix for the day:) Followed by either hanging out and watching some TV or getting ready for school. She goes the the Newcastle School MWF mornings from 8:45- 11:45 with Miss Jeri and is a star student. Loves being there and playing with her friends. She loves showing Claire and I all her pictures and school work when she gets in the car. And when her daddy can take or pick her up she feels extra special!
Ella is an excellent bed maker. She has perfected this skill and enjoys helping me out during the day with cleaning her room.
She is really good at entertaining herself, she has a great imagination... any given day she will have out her Polys and Pet Shop spread all over the counter, she loves to paint, color and do puzzles, play in the doll house or cabin or be outside in the sandbox.
Lunch time is usually easy... loves yogurt, nuggets, shape sandwiches, turkey and mustard, fruit... not too picky of an eater. And After lunch when Claire goes down for a map she usually has a bit of quiet time which consists of a movie and a snack in a cup on the couch. Right now Tinkerbell movies are the favs.
Wednesdays are busy days for her... after school we are going to start going to horse riding lessons from 12-1... which I just know she is going to love!! And then she takes a little dance class at the The Vibe with 5 of her little friends... its the cutest thing ever. These girls are darling and have a great time together... There is Ella, Brooke, Kennedy, Lucy, Rachael, and Ellie. She loves going to dance.
She is a great big sister... Claire follows her everywhere and wants to do everything with her and Ella is 95% of the time happy to have her. They play babies, and house and she always lets Claire play with her and her friends.. They are great friends and the sweetest of sisters. Everyday they are together...
She is such a social butterfly... friends friends friends. Everyday she is constantly asking to play with friends. Lucky for us she has a bunch of darling friends to choose from...Brooke and Dane, little Mason and big Claire, Grace and Kennedy, Lucy, and Rachael. She can not get enough of playing with friends!
Nights are usually pretty chill with just playing at home, eating dinner, hanging out playing with Mason and daddy. Bedtime is between 8-8:30 which includes lots of snuggles and talking and stories. She has her 2 blankies and her bunny to love and hug all night along with some fancy nightlights... yes she is spoiled! As far as staying asleep goes that can be tricky... most nights she is up at some point trying to get in bed with us... UUUGGGHHH. Bed she won't be little forever and I am trying to cherish all the extra loves I can.
So there you have it... some highlight of a day in the life of my Ella.... a happy, sweet, sassy, friendly, creative, darling little soul that I just cannot get enough of!
Ah Ella!! How we love her!! She is the best. I have always loved listening to her cute voice and hearing her adorable stories. She is good at self entertaining AND entertaining others. Brooke and Dane are sometimes lost without Ella and her imagination. She truly is the cutest thing. I love that picture of the dancing girls. Her pose is killing me. So Cute!!
