Ella's Big Excitement

Ella was in Gracie's room while I dressed Gracie, and she discovered a pretend baby bottle on the floor. It's the kind that has a white liquid in it, so it looks like milk. Now, Ella is still very fond of eating with Mommy, but she knows what a bottle is since she does use one 2 days a week while I work. I just sat back and snapped pictures as she tried to figure out what to do. This photo captured her surprise and delight to see "food" on the floor that she could eat.

She got it up to her mouth pretty quickly, but couldn't figure out how to get it in her mouth.
This little bottle got away from her a few times, but she kept trying.

This didn't seem right either....

But finally, success...kind of. It was in her mouth, but didn't produce the desired result, so she threw it aside and played with something else pretty quickly. On a side note, so far Gracie is very good about sharing her toys with Ella. I know that will probably end, but for now it's nice to see.
