Growing Pains

So, for those of you who don't know, Christine has started dating a guy who has two kids. One happens to be just 6 months younger than Ella and of course, Ella just thinks that is the coolest thing ever.

It seems, however that it has been a bit confusing to her since Kerrington is actually a couple inches taller than Ella.

"So I'm actually younger than Kerrington."
"No. You are actually 6 months older than Kerrington."
"Yeah. But she's taller than me."
"Yep. That's right."
"So...she's actually older than me."
"No, she just grew quicker than you did. But she's younger."
"Uh-huh...so then she was born before me?"

Notice how she keeps re-wording the same statement... I think this is a little trick she learned from her Dad. I'm pretty sure she thinks she's going to catch me in a slip up and I'll suddenly realize that she's been right the whole time and taller does indeed equal older.

Anyway, they have made fast friends and have been pretty fun to watch. They have even been announcing that they plan to marry eachother...but, don't be too concerned...Ella told Carl and I she was planning to marry her lipgloss because she just loves it that much. :)

Here's a cute pic of the new best buddies.
