I can do it Nutella style!

Maybe she's just growing up or maybe it's what she is learning at school (Montessori Method) but Ellie was insistent on putting her own Nutella onher whole wheat toast (my mornings are like the Nutella commercial, kids get your breakfast of fruit, berries, milk and Nutella on your whole wheat toast...)

At school, as part of the curriculm, the kids use kid sized tools to do all sorts if things, clean up, pour drinks, cut apples, etc. so I'm usually not surprised when Ellie wants to practice fine motor skills at home. She likes to be independent and in control (not like anyone I know...HA!).






But when she started to use her fingers to lick the extra Nutella off the knife...I knew what she was really after. And that there is part of her dad in her after all!

What? This is totally normal right? I mean, Daddy does it all the time...

Happy Friday! We have a big weekend planned with a trip up to SB, celebration of two actual birthdays and two May birthdays as an extended family (Susie and nick), visit from Susie and from Jimmy... Whoa, someone better get a good nights sleep. And it won't be me who will be picking Susie up from the airport at 11:00pm tonight!
