This is the world's ugliest toy, and also my Saturday morning project. I was making soft blocks for Ellie to play with, and got the idea to make a texture toy for her. So I grabbed whatever scraps I had, whether the colors matched or not, and made this. We have lace, elastic, zipper, silky ribbon, rough ribbon, ribbed ribbon, and more.
The big question was whether Ellie was going to like it. And she did. (Whew)
My doll is such a doll, and I am such a sucker for her. I never thought I would be the bragging mommy, but who can resist with that face?
We took Ellie swimming for the first time. She was really unsure at first, but then she started realizing just how awesome a pool is.
We didn't have any swim diapers. Her diaper was literally 10 lbs by the time we were done.
I love how she always uses Ryan's arm as her own arm rest.
She still hasn't been good about taking naps, and on this day she was so tired that she dozed off on Dad.
Ryan gave Ellie a new hair do. Ellie wasn't as thrilled about it and used her crib mattress to rub it back to normal. Ryan was sad.
