While I was getting a rare first-thing-in-the-morning snuggle from Ellie, I decided to try and take a photo, but when I did, and she could see herself on my phone screen, she started playing with her mouth and watching the image on the screen repeat her, which intrigued her and made for a nice little video.

Boxing Day
Boxing Day was much like Christmas Day, just a bit more low key. Ellie has once again surrounded by family, games, playing and laughter. Continue reading “Boxing Day”
