Mr. D in the house!!!

Ella was able to bring the big, blue teddy bear "Mr. D" home with her from pre-school. It was her responsiblity to take care of Mr. D while he stayed with us (2 whole days).

She needed to take Mr. D with her wherever she went and he also needed to eat healthy meals too!!!

Mr. D had a bit of a gender identity issue...but, he was a good sport.

Getting ready to go to Ballerina School! 

Mr. D. needed to be buckeled in to stay safe in the car (yes, that is a purple leotard/skirt that he is wearing to go Ballerina School under his pink jacket!). 

Getting ready to go into class!

Whew....dancing makes you hungry.

Ella feeding Mr. D some yummy "Nac & Cheez" with some peaches and bananas thrown in for good measure too.

Time to go "nite, nite." We must ready Mr. D a Clippord (Clifford) story before he goes to sleep.

Ella had so much fun with this activity and she was so responsible for Mr. D and his well being (David and I must be doing something right....right????). We needed to record all the things that she did with Mr. D in a journal with some photos too and then she returned Mr. D to school for the next friend to take him home.

However, this just cemented the idea that the three of us are a happy family with just the three of us...my hat is off to those families that have more than one child...keeping track of Ella and Mr. D was enough for all of us.
