Hoola Hoop

A month ago for a fun activity I took Ellie to the dollar store with $5 to spend however she wanted.  One of her purchases was this hoola hoop.  It has provided lots of entertainment and some great laughs, too.  I guess I should tell her she needs to shake her hips instead of her shoulders and head...or maybe I'll just wait a little while! :)

Sprinkler Fun

Today, with temps around 90, Ellie happily broke out the sprinkler and we all had some fun in the backyard.  Here are a few pics, and a cute video of Lucy's first sprinkler experience...
