ella wednesday: now i have two kids & squash and zucchini…

Going from one to two kids is no walk in the park- especially when you opt to have them both under TWO YEARS OLD. Dividing my attention evenly without brooding jealously is my biggest task when it comes to Ella…while she a GREAT big sister, she is a smart cookie and knows when to start the “I am desperately needy right now because you are holding Lincoln and not me, I think I will freak out now” tantrum.

GOOD NEWS? She will never know there was once this thing called “Ella Wednesday” that features JUST HER. Now, I must share the beauty that is BOTH my kids….perhaps call it “TORRENCE TUESDAY”????….WE JUST DON’T KNOW THESE THINGS YET.

Here is the last Ella Wednesday…from now on, she must share the spotlight.

This is how it went:

Nathan and Ella went to the garden to pick the squash.

Ella came inside to show mommy.

This is her starting to realized that the squash VAGUELY resembles a gun….hmmmm…

Ahhhhh, yes, this is a suitable gun…..

COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL ELLA….JUST CALM DOWN!!

Scary.

Anywho…a few days later, she found THIS in the garden. There is a small chance we should have picked this sooner…

When your zucchini weighs as much as your two-year-old….you might have let it grow for too long…

Cheers!
