Chillin' at the Mall

On a cold and overcast New England Sunday (post football season) there's only one place to go to stretch your legs- the local mall!

Ella was a little dazed (and had some hair issues) when she woke up so we knew she needed an outing.












First stop was the food court. This was Ella's first experience eating out of a bowl; she didn't dump it or knock it off the table-hooray!











Next stop was the carousel. She really loves the lights and music.












She'll get to ride it when she turns 1 next week!













"I can't wait to turn 1."

The fountain is another favorite stop on the mall tour.

When Ella's a little older, we'll tell her about the time when Auntie Sara was 4-years-old and fell into the decorative fountain at a mall.

Finally, she loves the petstore. *

*disclaimer: we just look in the windows- if you want a pet, go to the ASPCA or the pound and get a delightful mutt!
