New "costume"

Ella's new "costume" is her new Dora gown that she has been wearing all day, every day since the weekend. She thinks it is "so beautiful and really, really special", and, for the first time ever, she's excited to wear the other gowns in her dresser that she never would before. She's such a cutie, but wearing a gown definitely makes her look more like a growing little girl than my little baby.

The best part about it is that it came with a magic wand!

And a couple other sweet pics from the week. Here's Ella practicing for senior pictures... :)

And me and my little turkey, who wouldn't open her eyes for anything and thought it was so funny!!
