The big day finally came, the day which Ella has been talking about and looking forward to for weeks - Ella's birthday. It has really been more of a birthday week, which started off with a combined birthday-farewell party at her daycare. In the morning, the kids helped make a cake, and in the afternoon, Sara gave a little speech where she explained that everybody grows up and now that Ella is a big girl, she is going to start going to school. All the kids helped decorate the cake and Ella got some presents, a photo album of her fun days with her friends there, and something else which is perfect for her and she absolutely loves: a bed for her babies. As soon as she got it home, all her babies first took turns in the bed then all went into it together. She rocks it and sings "Rock-A-Bye-Baby" to them.
On Saturday afternoon it was Ella's birthday party, complete with the requested Dora The Explorer cake, and pink and green balloons. 18 of her friends joined her at Gymboree and ran and played and jumped around until they were worn out.
Tuesday, on Ella's actual birthday, Ella opened her birthday presents in the morning and then shared cupcakes with her new friends at pre-school. Given the choice of where to have her birthday dinner, Ella naturally picked SUSHI.
Ella's latest - and heartwarming - turn of phrase is "Won't you...?" as in "Won't you read to me, Mama?"

McDonalds? Chuck-E-Cheez? Dairy Queen? Nooooo! Only a Dennis-Ferguson 3-year old would pick sushi for a birthday treat! Ha ha ha! She is definitely your daughter. How cute.
It's so cool that Ella is three!
wow that IS a cool cake for a very cool little girl!!
Ella definitely has an advanced taste for exotic flavours.
When will she be taught to prepare sushi by herself?
