Ahh!!

This is a new favorite picture!  It was another big week for miss ella.  She slept from 9-5 twice already (its only thursday).  And on monday she reached and touched Sophie (the giraffe) !  It was a very deliberate grab, and since then she notices her hands and plays with them and really is looking and grabbing her toys! What a treat!
This weekend is another long road trip, but this time up north to visit lots of people on my moms side!  Then it will be back to reality.  It will be a shock to all of us, as we all have enjoyed "sleeping in" 730-8.

One week..

I cannot believe my time home with ella is almost done!  One week until I have to go back to work, and I am not looking forward to it, but all good things must come to an end.  And we will just have to adjust to our new "normal".   I was really nervous about bringing her to daycare and how they were going to get her to nap (which is a huge chore), but after visiting her on friday I was reassured why I chose her to help raise my daughter.  She just seems to have such a great handle on everything, and I know ella will love her!

This picture was taken a week or two ago, but i just love her big smile.  She is definitely is a morning person just like her parents, and still just loves to eat, smile, grunt, kick, and talk!!
