Gianna and Ella

I told Maria the other day, we're at a stage where Gianna is trying very hard to play with Ella as an equal, but sometimes, Ella just plain, doesn't get it.

At 1 1/2 years old, Ella is growing so much in understanding the world around her, but throw in the imaginative world of a 4 year old and you have to wonder if even she is thinking, "what the heck are we doing?!"

Most of the time Ella is content copying her sister and trying to follow all the demands she is given, but then of course, there are the times when she gets sick of getting told what to do, refuses to give in to Gianna's requests, and just wants to do her own thing! ...And then the peaceful play turns into good old sisterly love-- with bops and shoves and cries;)

Either way, it has been a lot of fun watching their relationship with each other grow:)
