Ellie is burning through the Little House on the Prairie series like it's going out of style. It probably helps that both Isaac and I prefer to read those books instead of play other things with her (Polly Pockets, anyone?). She's now halfway through her fourth big chapter book.
It's seeping into her play now. Her Polly Pockets had a "parlor" in their house that was only for company, and this morning Ellie had to go out to the barn and stable to milk the cows while she was taking care of her pretend dog. She's been training her stuffed dog and trying to "break it in" like a calf. And this morning, Isaac was giving her a shoulder ride as she directed him with "Gee," "Haw," and "Giddy-up." Oh, and her bathtub doll was wearing a "hoopskirt."

Very cute. I read this to Matt and he said, "That's hilarious!" Just thought you should know...
BTW, I hope you and Isaac had a wonderful Valentine's Day!
Too cute! It brings back memories of my own "Little House" days. :) I would hang sheets up on either side of my canopy bed to turn it into a covered wagon.
Allison! Didn't know blogging was so popular! It's great to read your happenings! Miss you guys. My girls love the LHP books, too...
