My babies keep growing up!

Happy Birthday 
Ella!
awww baby Ella
Ella had specialty caramel apples for her party. 
Sis. Borjas makes them - they are to die for!
Want one? Check them out here


Seven things about Ella:
  • She was our BIG surprise baby - we found out about her impending arrival when Benjamin was only nine months old.
  • She has an impeccable memory. She remembers situations, outfits, background scenery, small details from just about every conversation she has had since birth.
  • She LOVES black olives - just open her a can and she will have one on the tip of each finger in no time.
  • She has always been mature for her age, which was nice when she was three, its scary when she is seven.
  • She HATES waking up in the morning. Every morning she wants to skip school. Every afternoon, she is glad she went.
  • She loves to read, she reads out loud, alone, every billboard, subtitle, articles over mom's shoulders - anything. Lately she reads to Maiya with a very "teachery" voice.
  • She is tiny. Sometimes she is embarrassed about how short she is, but good things come in small packages!

Happy 7th Ella. Babies grow up fast. I like that hairdo on her. Like the dancing. That should be part of the wii fit.

Happy Birthday Ella! My first two are 13 months apart so I know how special a little suprise can be. Now that they are teenagers I love it! They have alot of the same friends and help each other with advice, homework, that sort of thing. I enjoyed holding sweet little Cora today. She is a qt!
