Once upon a time (3-22-09)…

This is a very special story about the land called Once Upon A Time, and Nana is so excited about sharing it!! Princess Isabella got to spend the day at Nana’s Saturday, and it was so much fun. After picking Isabella up from her mommy they had lunch at McDonalds. Bella loves ketchup, a lot! She ate almost all of her chicken nuggets and french fries. She and Nana laughed so much – when she wanted more ketchup on her tray, she would let Nana know by pointing at it and saying “peese”. By the time they left Micky D’s, Bella had almost as much ketchup on her as she had in her :)

When they arrived at Nana’s house and walked on the porch, Bella wasn’t sure about the dogs she was hearing bark inside. So Nana let her stand on the porch and look at them through the door – she gave Bella a few pointers and in a matter of minutes Bella was laughing at Nana’s dogs!! She was also giving them very stern orders… “hush Kelso”, as well as “no, no Fancy” were staple phrases throughout the rest of the day. Also, in less than an hour she was chasing Kelso trying to give him love, and he let her. Precious!!

Of course pulling out all the toys was a must! Bella’s favorite thing to do was to put the pegs from the Cracker Barrel game into the little glass. Nana was also very impressed with her extraordinary coordination at such a young age – she is very good at putting the pegs in the game correctly (clearly genius) :) She also has a great dance move; she squats down and on ready… set… go… turns around and around. They did that a lot!

It was such a beautiful day, Nana and Bella decided to go outside for a while. Bella still thought it was funny to be on the porch and see the dogs through the door. She is such a dare-devil too, Nana had to watch her very close because she isn’t scared to go right to the edge or to the steps and try them on her on. She is so much like her daddy at that age (bless her mommy’s heart, lol).

They walked out to see the chickens, and she loved them. She just looked at them when only Nana was there, but later when Grandpa Cookie got home she and Nana played outside with him and the chickens. She helped him feed them and she even pet one. She loved it and did not want to go inside with Nana!

Back inside, Nana and Bella and her daddy played and played! And then they had a very special surprise!!

Princess Isabella’s cousin, Princess Ella and her daddy stopped by to visit!!

Nana was so happy to have both of her Princesses at her house together again :)

There were a lot of kisses!

And Ella was so happy to see Isabella that she even shared Bunny with her.

Ella’s daddy, Isabella’s Uncle Josh, always makes them laugh.

And still so many kisses – Bella got lots and lots of kisses Saturday from everyone at Nana’s house.

Including her very own daddy :)

YAY for a great day!! Nana can’t wait to do it again soon :)

as always ~
