Cute Elly things

Cute thing no. 1:




This is Elly Belly in her kindy group photo. She stands out for two reasons:
 1. She is the cutest ;)
2.  Her filthy pants!
Though at first I regretted not putting her in a black pair, I'm actually glad that those dirty grey pants capture just how much fun she has and is!



Cute thing no. 2:

She wrote this letter to me (even though it looks like it's addressed to her) at kindy. When I opened it,  I asked her to read it to me but she said "no, mummy you can read it!" 
So I assumed and hoped that the letter said "dear mummy, I love you very much, love Elena."
Apparently, I was right (phew!) but I left out a little fine print at the bottom, which she read out to me... "and can you please make me a nutella sandwich, thank-you."
Just goes to show what a cheeky little thing she is. :)


Cute thing no.3:




She decided one afternoon, that she was going to be an 'abstract artist,' and sell her artworks for a whopping $1 each. She was so excited when her first customer (me) bought one of her paintings and gave her the money. But soon after, she decided that the artwork was no longer for sale. I still haven't received my refund.
Just goes to show her potential business skills, and sneakiness. 

Cute thing no. 4:




El loves to play dress up. Whether it's at home or at our local op-shop. She found this little ensemble a little while ago. Just goes to show what a little character she is and how much entertainment she gives me!


Cute thing no. 5:

When our friends Cassie and Callie came to visit us one day, little Callie had a runny nose. Cassie asked Elly if she could get a tissue and wipe Callie's nose, "of course!" replied Elly, and did just that. A little later, Cassie  called on Elly again, and asked if she could please "blow Callie's nose." This time Elly took it literally, and walked over to Callie, puffed her cheeks and blew on Callie's nose. Cassie and I just cracked up laughing as we watched Elly "blow" Callie's nose! You had to be there. 
But it just goes to show how helpful and funny she is! 




Elly Belly, you're one of a kind. Thanks for the laughs and cute things you do and say, amongst those little headaches. :)

  1. Love these! She is soooo cute! Makes me realise how much we miss out on in getting to know this little munchkin but lucky through your blog we get to learn more about her. Love that she is the only grubby one in her kindy class :) Oh and tell her i'd like to buy one of her paintings for $2!
