Last Friday night we took Ellie to Chuck E. Cheese. She'd been twice for birthday parties, but it was a year ago and she didn't quite know what was going on. I pumped her up for it all day, and she was running around screaming, "Chuck E. Cheese!" like she knew what it was! When we got there, she was so excited! She kept saying, "kids!" However, she soon decided she'd rather watch all the other kids play than actually ride anything herself. Every time a ride would start up, she'd reach for us and want off. She did enjoy handing us the basketballs and skee-balls for the games we played to use up all her tokens! She has mentioned Chuck E. Cheese everyday since we went.
Riding a horse and holding on for dear life!

She was dead asleep standing up!
On New Year's Eve, we went to the casino for dinner and some gambling with the Vanderbilts, the Whites, and the LaFevers. Afterwards, we went to Hayley and Jordan's to ring in the new year. I was exhausted, so it wasn't long after midnight before we headed home! How things change when you become a parent!
I brought this home for Ellie and took her picture on New Year's Day. Both were so cute, I couldn't decide!
Here's to 2012! We're looking forward to it!
