Around the Johnson House

I thought I'd make a list of things you might see or hear if you were to come to our house on a random day.

1.  You would most definitely see a mess of toys and dog fur.  And then you'd hear Nick say, "Can we PLEASE just clean the house?"  I do clean it!  It just seems to get cluttered again immediately afterward.

2.  You'd probably see Ella singing and dancing.  This video features her best A Capella rendition of "The Cupid Shuffle."  She butchers all of the lyrics, but she's just adorable, so who cares?

3.  You'd see and hear Ella delighting Eli with her antics.  A simple balloon can bring so many smiles.



4.  You could watch THRILLING games of peek-a-boo.  You don't even have to look away or hide.  Eli is so excited just at playing a game!

5.  And then fights for Eli's attention.  "Say DaDa!" "NO! Say MaMa?  MaMa? MaMa!"  This is almost always followed up by "NNNNOOOO! Say El-La! ELLLLLLLLLL-LA!"




6.  At Memaw and Papaw's house, you'd see Ella climbing into the cage with Paisley and Cabella.  They're so black, you can only see glowing eyes next to her.  We tried turning on the lights for a better picture, but then you could see the dogs and Ella's face was just a white, washed-out blur.  I settled for this one. 
7. You'd hear Ella say, "Mommy, you make my heart soar!" Then see her smile with both dimples.  LOVE THAT GIRL!

8.  You'd hear Scout's tail thwacking on everything in the house. Followed by Ella scolding her, "Scout! NO!"

9.  You'd hear Ella talking (NONSTOP!) about her cousins or camping out and how much fun she has with her friends. 



10.  You'd definitely see me stalking the children in an effort to photograph or videotape their every move.  I can't help it!
