Just Another Week

Dad and Ella carved the big pumpkin together.
Checking to see if it's hot.

Helping Dad clean out the guts.

Playing the rock game. She takes the rocks from the bucket and puts them in the chair. Then back to the bucket and so on. Great opportunity to study!

Wearing Mom's high heels.

I survived my Micro test last week, but came down with a nasty cold the day after. I'm sure it had to do with the all the stress that comes along with any big test. My teacher still hasn't posted the grades yet. I am dying to find out what I got! I'm glad my Dad is out of town this week since I've been unable to exercise all week! I have another test tomorrow as well, so I've been studying for about two weeks straight. I am so glad I am not working!

Speaking of work, I was approved for the unemployment extension which allows me 13 more weeks of checks. I am very blessed since the right job has not come along just yet. I am hoping it shows its face just as I finish up my class in early December.

Yesterday I took Ella to the Boo at the Zoo to watch the animals eat their jack-o-lanterns. She enjoyed running around the zoo in her pumpkin costume and visiting all the animals. We saw the monkeys swinging from rope and rope and Ella yelled "weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!"

Here are some new words that Ella has been saying:

"Where Dada?"

"What's that?"

"Dada home"

"jacket"

Guess I should get back to studying... : (
