I have the bad habit of making totally unhealthy junk-filled suppers while Josh is out of town. I really try to make healthy dinners, especially for Ella because I want her to be a better eater than I am. Unfortunately, when Josh is traveling it is really hard to do the nightly housework, bath & bedtime routine, blog and cook dinner (notice, I’m giving up dinner over blogging)! Anyway, tonight I was feeling frisky and decided to grill some chicken, make homemade mashed potatoes and fried squash. Not that is it terribly healthy, but it sure is yummy. While dealing with this…
I was trying to deal with this.
GRRR. Not only did she want me to watch and take pictures, but I had to make a few minor repairs to her high heels and jewelry and I had to rescue the necklace after it got caught in her pony. Talk about multi-tasking!! Turns out, Ella wasn’t in the mood for chicken and squash, but she did eat the potatoes. Either way, I enjoyed our fancy supper and my fancy Ella.
As for the weekend, here are a few pictures that we took on Sunday. Ella, ready for church, sitting on the potty for the umpteenth time, watching Jungle Book (Which she is also doing RIGHT NOW. I am so sick of Bare Necessities, lol).
Getting a mani/pedi from sweet Daddy.
Working her lovely green high heels.
I hate that I didn’t have the camera at my side all weekend because we missed some great opportunities. On Saturday, we ate cheap Mexican for lunch and Ella crumbled up her chips, dropped them in the cheese dip and scooped them out by the handful. It was awfully messy, but hilarious to watch. On Sunday, we ate Carrabba’s for lunch and it was SO yummy. Ella decided she wanted to try olive oil, so Josh whipped her up a plate of her own. Unfortunately, she wanted “herbs” in hers, so he sprinkled a little black pepper that seemed to do the trick. She lapped it up and we had to give her multiple refills. Just when you think you have a picky eater, they develop a love for something like olive oil. Precious.
