Little Yogi

The other day at lunch, Elly asked me to look at her and to my surprise she was in the tree pose. I immediately thought that her aunt Jenelle had taught her the pose but she lives in southern California. Who knows who taught it to her but she does the pose well and loves doing it. This may be a little yogi in the works.

Elly insisted on taking a picture of me doing the pose. She isn't that bad of a photographer either.

Bath Time

Bath time these days have been my girls favorite thing to do. I absolutely love the photos of Andy and Layla. Can you tell how much this dad loves his girls? Elly loves spending time in the bath. She plays pretend with her bath toys for hours, honestly. Elly doesn't even think of getting out of the bath until she is "pruney".

See how "pruney" those feet are!

Rewind to September

Layla Eva Pence was blessed on Sunday September 27, 2009. Andy gave her a beautiful blessing full of so much love. We are so blessed as a family and feel so grateful to have a new one in our family. The photo below is our attempt to get a good family photo. If you can't see Elly is tugging on Andy's ear and Layla is crying her head off. Andy and I are trying to hold it together. Nice try, right?

The Pence family photo turned out much better.

We started a pre-school co-op with Ellys friend Addie and her cousins Izabel and Ford. The pre-school has been a lot of fun for me to teach again and also for Elly to be learning so much. Here we took a field trip to the zoo before it gets to cold.

Fascinated with the giraffe! How could you not be interested in this unique, looking, animal.

Looking at the lions.

The girls having some fun.
