AKA THE NUTSHELL, VOLUME 3. After my Mom suddenly died 55 yrs young, I journalled every morning over coffee. When I filled a complete notebook,it represented my life in a Nutshell, which felt "Nuts" at the time. Writing is an armor against what is bothering you, a "shell" of sorts. So I enteratined myself by flipping that journal over and writing "the Nutshell" on the front...I found it so clever I named the second notebook I filled "The Nutshell, Volume 2". Sometimes you feel like a Nut...

Turning 11 months old on Saturday!!!

This is a big week! She turns 11 months on Saturday.

She discoverd how to open a game box on Tuesday.















Visited with Nane and Paw and















Discovered how soap suds work on Wednesday...















Melted my heart on Wednesday night (what is new)...














Thursday we ran to 'camp' so she was bundled up-
that is the pen she holds on to when she rides in the stroller. She holds both her hands up like she is being robbed when we are running. The wind or something makes her do it. I'm sure to passers by on the road she looks like a bank teller in a stick up! Some people have running shoes, running shirts...Ellen has a running pen.









Then I snapped this just after I waved "see you later" - she gets busy right when we get there-lots of toys to play with!!!
















And here she is in what they call the "bye bye buggy"...She seems to LOVE it!!

























Tomorrow we go to Yellow River Game Ranch with Lauren and Davis.
I am sure I'll be my usual papparazzi.

    I did not think that Ellen could get any more beautiful.
    I WAS WRONG! (Imagine that!)
    You have become quite a photographer in the process!
    Love to ALL!
