Daddy Daughter Day

Well, my wife got to see some of her old friends this Sunday. I got to spend some time with Ellie all by myself. As you can see by this posting, we survived. No house fires or anything broken. Of course the living room had toys strewn around everywhere!

Ellie and I had a great time. I think I could watch her facial expressions all day. Her little smirks, smiles, "questioning" looks are absolutely entertaining. Oh, and she finally stood up all by herself. She has already been pulling herself up on things like the couch and shimming around, but this was the first time she literally just stood straight up in the middle of the floor. She was smiling right at me and me right back at her, but of course there is never a camera, camcorder, cell phone, polaroid, etc. when you need one! But I'll at least have the memory of it. We will definitely get it on camcorder when she does it longer.

Overall it was a great day. Ellie and I have a blast and Mommy got some well needed time with some old friends. Now, another week of work begins. Wish me luck!
