Papa's Here!

Papa arrived late Monday night after a 3-day ordeal and a night or two sleeping at the Vancouver airport. All the snow in Vancouver has thrown holiday travel into chaos, canceling flights, delaying flights for days, etc. We're just happy he is here and ready to enjoy the holiday. Ella is ecstatic to see him and had been looking forward to his arrival for days.

Note on Ella's development, she has never been interested in dressing herself, just allows us to do it, no fuss, no inclination. It's the reason Ella has been well coordinated and properly dressed at all times. In just the last few weeks, she has become totally independent of us and refuses any help when getting dressed. Yesterday was also the first time she wanted to pick her own clothes as we were getting ready to go to Costco. I think it's adorable and as long as she's decent, I could care less what she wants to wear shopping...Ron was a little skeptical when she put on her bumble bee costume, complete with pink shoes. How can you not be so proud as people oohed and awwed at her as we walked through Costco. Too cute!!

Glad to hear your dad got in safely.

Earlier this week Nolan wore yellow rain boots, a winter hat and a paper birthday hat on top of his winter hat. We were in Starbucks and the "Birthday Boy" got star treatment....as you know the big day isn't until February. Oh, and he told everyone he's 4. ;)

Merry Christmas to you!
