Ellie's latest

Damian and Ellie have started taking swim lessons and they're both really enjoying it! We didn't bring a camera to the first class, but here's a picture of her getting ready to go:
She's also broken in Charlie's new chair:
And this picture is a wonderful illustration of why we don't let Ellie watch very much TV. This is seriously what she looked like the other day. She would not break eye contact with the TV and she hardly blinked! Damian was actually doing a silly dance in front of the TV, trying to get her attention, and this is what she looked like after that...all she needs is a bag of potato chips and a coke, and she's practically a teenager!

The only thing that's missing in front of the TV is some drool and you running around cleaning the house while she is concentrating!

It's so great that Ellie and Damian can still use the pool to try out those new skills!

I love that she's in swim lessons:) And the tv picture is hysterical!

Yea for swim lessons! I'm sure she is loving that! :)
And if only she stuck her hand down her diaper while watching tv... classic. There is a reason that I can get in a whole shower while Alex is watching- desperate times call for desperate measures!

Soooo.... help me out here....

Are we saying the TV picture reflects something bad or undesireable? Looks to me like the ballgame is on. She's studying, getting ready for those wonderful Fall afternoons of watching football with Charlie.

Right?
Damian??
