Miss Ellie is growing so fast and meeting new mile stones everyday. Last week was her first week in childcare with Mrs. Amber Ridenhour and seems to be loving her time there, while we go to work... I am sure last week was harder on me than her, but she seems to love her new friends; Gabrella, Logan, and Bradley. Ellie just grins from ear to ear when I drop her off, and she is always welcomed by the little boys in the morning.
Ellie just babbling about her day with Amber....
After a long day with Amber... She does not sleep much for Amber, but does really well at night!!
Fripp with Mom and Dad!
Beach Baby... Didn't last long, I am just glad I got a picture.
Maybe I am just a proud Mama, but I swear when she came home from childcare she was just a babbling on about how much fun she had and what all they did during the day. Mrs. Amber says she is doing really well and has not been very fussy, just when she is a little gasy at time...
We have been pretty busy this month as well. Trying to squeeze any last minute vacations in before my maternity leave came to an end.
Cam and I got to go down to Fripp for a couple of days with Mom and Dad. Ellie dropped one of her feedings while at the beach (the 3-4 am feeding). Cam taught me to put Ellie down after her 6-8pm feeding and then the next sleep feed would last until the next morning! When it works it's AWESOME, but sometimes she still wants that additional feed. David and Jimmy had to work, so they did not join us until last Thursday evening and then Martha and Jason also came down on Friday for the weekend. We had such a great time with everyone. I just wished baby girl would have loved the beach, I guess it's still a little early. And god bless David for being that Dad on the beach setting up the large tent with the baby tent inside and chairs only to find out Ellie was not going to have any of it. I am sure onlookers were quiet amused.
My little princess!

HILARIOUS! Ellie loves naps just like her Daddy...
I am just in love with sweet moments like this!!!
The past month Miss Ellie has just amazed us. She now recognizes our voices and giggles, kackles, and babbles on and on. I just never knew I could love something so much and I swear every day I love her more. She is definatly a little blessing!
I also almost forgot we had a great time at the Crawfish Festival in Rosewood with Sally and John Robert. Ellie was a trooper! It was a warm day, but that did not seem to bother Ellie. I also was able to go out with some girls while the guys stayed home and watched after the babies. (and the babies survived :) In fact she slept through the entire night!!)
