Oh, our little miss Ella

These are a few of my favorite current pictures of Ella. She is the funniest baby. All of these my sister in law took and this is what happens to me when I try and get her pictures taken professionally. She pulls funny faces, I especially love the bull dog face (see left) that she makes, she love to make this face and breath funny through her nose. She is getting so big I can't believe it. Only two more months and she will be 1. She is such a busy girl- walking around the furniture, pulling up on any and everything, standing on her own, waving, clapping, crawling, and making the funniest noises and sounds. Yesterday I was watching her and she was pulling stuff out of her toy chest and I thought to myself- "she is going to fall right in there" because she was trying to reach something on the very bottom and she was on her tip toes and sure enough she flipped right in. It was seriously the funniest thing I have ever seen, of course she was screaming but I had to laugh- her feet were sticking in the air. She is also loving to get into the pantry and takes all of her baby food out- probably hoping I will throw it away since she hates it. She also is into giving hugs, I love it. I love that little girl so much.

Ha, at least mine are all women:)

Umm, I don't think so!

So, I think that we can all agree Ella looks more like Stewart, so why is this saying she looks more like me?

New York City

I had the oppurtunity to go to New York last week for five days. It was so great, but it was so hard to leave my little family. Ella especially because she had no idea what was going on. But her dad took good care of her and she got to sleep at Grammy's one night. We did so many fun things and I can't believe all that we fit into five days. Visiting sites, eating, shopping, and taking in all of this huge city. It is such a different way of life there. We were able to see two plays, Wicked and Mary Poppins. Both excellent. We were also able to see a symphony- it was amazing. We also had great weather everyday except one when it poured on us- of course the day we went to Liberty and Elis island, but other than that it was beatiful. Humid, but not bad. All in all we had a great time. Although poor Ella didn't go number two the whole time I was gone, she was a little stressed:)

This is Ella's favorite past time. She loves her tongue. She does this while she walks around the furniture, just sitting playing with her toys, or scooting wherever she feels like going. She is the best baby, I love her so much. Not to mention she is so dang adorable.

New Carseat!

Can you believe how big she looks?!? She was so excited to get a new carseat, we looked through all of them at the store and she seemed to love this one. Usually Stewart say we have to get one that we can use for either a girl or boy but he caved and said Ella could get this one, that she deserved one girlie thing. We got it home, got it out of the box and she wanted to sit in it, look at it, climb on it, and the most exciting part is that her chubby legs wont be hanging over her infant seat now that she has her big girl seat. Not to mention that she is always trying to sit up in her little seat now she can sit up and see everything:)
