We are all ridiculously excited about the holidays.  Thanksgiving in Greensboro with the Soths and Christmas in California with EVERYONE!!!

makes me want to do a holiday jig:

Send your own ElfYourself eCards

Barack the Vote

get out and vote

Mommy: "Elena, who are you voting for?"

Elena: "O-mama" 
Mom, leave me alone, I have to make some political Obama calls
seriously.  This campaign can use my cuteness.  we can't get complacent

Are we headed to the polls yet?Mom, I am getting worried, is there going to be a line?



That way to voting booth
let's go.  I'll bring the snacks


Excited about our civic duty, that i can't keep still

Did I make my point.  Go out and vote, especially if it is for Obama.

PS For those in California, vote NO on Proposition 8.  Stop discrimination

Happy Halloween 2008

Something smells...oh, that's me.  Smelly Ellie

Getting into Trick or Treating
Hey Miss Lily.  This chocolate tastes good, even through the wrapper.  Don't tell my mom that I am eating it though
Chocolate and peanut butter combined...2 forbidden foods.  they taste so good

October weekend fun

I had a big weekend this past week. lots of fun...and I even saw my daddy on sunday. he has been working very hard lately

Saturday morning, mom took me to the San Jose Children's Museum because it was raining outside and she wanted to get out of the house. She forgot to bring her camera which meant I could play without having to stop for photo-ops. it was freedom as I have never experienced before (and probably never will again).

That afternoon, we went to Miss Lily's place for a playdate. I rode her zebra, of which she is terrified:

I also got to sit in a small chair...my parents need to get me some of these:
Once I got home, I passed out on the carpet in the family room. I played hard so I had to recover.
Sunday morning we went to brunch in Menlo Park at Cafe Baronne. We met up with Auntie Jen, Uncle Aussie, Darlene, Greg and cutie Samuel. Good times were had by all.

Uncle Aussie sure makes funny faces:
Monkey See, monkey do
Going in for the killSweet baby love
All that kissing sure wears a girl out
Later I played in my princess tunnel that Abby (or Babby, as I call her) gave me for my birthday.

I see you mom:
I'm coming
We ended the weekend by going to the park and dinner in Mountain View with Abby (Babby), marzia and matt. we had a great time. Abby and I hugged a lot and held hands. We also rode a horse together:
At dinner I actually ate some chinese food and it wasn't pureed. my parents were so proud. My mom may have cried.

It was an exhausting but exciting weekend.

My favorite color

is blue

Fun at home & Roche family Fun Day

We've also had lots of fun at home and work in the past month

We went to Roche family Fun Day and had fun. There was a bounce houses, music, animals, foods and lots of good friends

I also got to ride my first horse. I was a bit unsure but I didn't cry at all.

I enjoyed riding the horse so much, that i rode my bike that my grandparents gave me when we got home. It kind of looks like a horse

Using a barrette to hold my dress up, since there really isn't enough hair on my head to wear the barrette
My mom let me feed myself. I did a pretty good job, don't you think

Fun with a balloon
Fun at the mall fountain
Mom, you take too many pictures
Auntie Pam came to visit me again. This time she came on her birthday...and brought me gifts. She brought me 6 books. How did she know I love books so much? And I also love Pam too. I cried when she drove away. i hope to visit her in Michigan soon
Cute in my dress

And that concludes this blog entry
