How handsome is this kid?!

Elena made this doughnut at the Children's Museum. Krispy Kreme had a little cart set up with a worker who had gloves for the kids to wear so that they could make (meaning: frost) their own. The icing is red because they were opening a new Clifford exhibit. She was so careful when she ate it and didn't get any frosting on her shirt.
My wonderful, hardworking, handsome husband turned 31 on October 5th. We enjoyed a nice evening at home. Dan was sick for the two days before and the two days after, but he emerged from the bedroom for an hour or two to open presents and let Elena blow out his candles (he was just pretending so that he wouldn't spread his germs around). Elena did a great job decorating the cake with a variety of sprinkles.
We had a girl's night at the movies recently. We (Mom, Bethany, and I) took Elena to see her very first movie in a movie theater: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.
We had a blast and she was on her very best behavior. The movie was really funny and cute. I was able to preview everything about it on this website which was great.
Check out the size of that popcorn bucket! I think that might have been her favorite part about going to the movie theater. Yes we ate it all, don't judge.
