What is she going to teach her?

Ella is a mess. It is what it is. They always say your going to get a child that's just like you (for pay backs) and this, I think, is what we got....Chris? However it comes, I'm so glad Ella is in our lives. She makes makes it interesting and stressful but so much fun! This child has NO fear and will try anything once, ......or twice, or three times. The other day, she started off the day by falling off our bed while trying to reach over to our night stand to get her pluggie (that I was trying to hide). I think she got too excited and was literally leaping towards it- do you think we're going to have a hard time getting rid of it? Later on that day she ran right into the corner of our kitchen table giving herself her first black eye! To top off the day she fell down about 5 stairs while coming downstairs (and Chris was right beside her)! The funny thing is, this stuff doesn't seem to phase her.

I just had to catch a picture of her in her usual orneriness, standing on the rocking horse JUMPING up and down! Poor Olivia was just sitting there taking it all in- WHAT IS ELLA GOING TO TEACH HER POOR LITTLE SISTER? What if Olivia is not as daring or outgoing like her? What if she is scared of those things? I just pray Ella is easy on her and doesn't get her in too many predicaments! I can already hear Ella "Come on Olivia, just try it!".





Here's her black eye - this is a few days old so it's faded a bit!
