My baby girl is 3 months old....  No longer a newborn

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!

 James playing sweet with Ellie... Took him a while to warm up to her :)

Enjoying my baby girl!

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!!)

TWO MONTHS... growing like a weed!

We survived our 2 month check up with 4 shots and some liquid stuff they put in her mouth... She was a little dramatic, but handled the shots like a champ.  I think I was more freaked out about the doctors appointment than her.  Dr. Todd said she was growing just as expected and she was almost 11 lbs and a little over 23 inches.
Ellie has been nothing but a blessing.  She still eats a TON, almost 4 ounces every 3 hours and will let me sleep 4 hours at night (still waiting for her to sleep through the night). 

Charleston, SC

In the past month we have been busy and was introduced to both beaches, Charleston and Fripp.

Fripp Island, SC

 Easter as a family!

The Cook's came over to celebrate Easter with us.

The past two months have been wonderful, at times a challenge but would not change it for the world.  Our other two babies, Grizzly and Maggie and been great around Miss Ellie as well.  Maggie (the Golden) is an old girl and pretty set in her ways, but will follow me around and lay in Ellie's room when we are playing, and Grizzly (the Bernese) just loves her and guards her.  Could not have ask for better pups! 

Additional pictures during the month of April............

And baby girl loves her mobile... She just cracks up and is entertained for as long as it is on, not long enough sometimes. :)

Father/Daughter time in the evenings...

My little chucky monkey... Love her!!

One month down....

We made it! :) Our sweet little princess is already one month.  The past several weeks have been busy but with David's help we have got our schedule down (for the most part).  Miss Elizabeth is a pretty good sleeper, even though she is still feeding every 3 hours.  She does have the feeding down. (Home girl would eat 24/7 if it was up to her )

Cannot seem to find the 2 week picture at the moment....

Our check-ups have been great.  She is growing as schedule and has already gained 2 lbs, almost 9lbs.

We made it up to Greenville for Miss Elizabeth to meet her Great Grandparents at 4 weeks and she did amazing.  We had a full day first at Grandmommy's (Frances Baldwin) for Sunday lunch with her great Aunt Sandra, then to Ma's (Jean Howard) at the Cascades, and last stop at Joy and Hunter's to see their family and Cam with James and Gigi!!
