Elena's 4th Birthday

We celebrated Elena's 4th Birthday this year on the 15th ( my sisters Birthday ) that way dad could be there and so could her bestest buddy Noah. This is the start of her celebration.

Starting Young

Here are both the kids in front of the computer playing with PBS..well Elena is,

Ian is watching of course.

Anyone for Tea?

Here is Elena in her room setting up a tea party. She has really been spending more and more time in there lately using her imagination setting up trips, cruises and parties for all of her friends.

Silly Ham

Here is my little Ham Zam looking like such a big boy already.

Girls and Dresses

So here is Elena in one of her new dresses. She really likes this one being it goes so high when she spins.

Peter Pan

Elena is into Peter Pan among all other Disney. A few weeks ago she asked me to make her a Peter Pan hat, then she asked me to make her an outfit...

I am not that talented so I let her know  I knew someone that could make one (que Oma). Elena called Oma and made her request..within no time she was here and had costume in hand along with one extra hat...enjoy!

Whats an Alligator?

Once Elena was done riding to the top floor she came out to allow Ian a turn on it. Ian never would stand inside of it fully like we were hoping he was just a bit curious as to what the excitement was all about.
