WELL HELLO ALL...IF YOU HAVE COME TO THIS SITE..YOU MUST LOVE US, WHICH MEANS WE LOVE AND MISS YOU!!!

JUST AN UPDATE..ELLA IS 11 WEEKS OLD AS OF YESTERDAY..THAT MEANS SHE WILL BE THREE MONTHS OLD NEXT WEEK! I CANT BELIEVE IT! TIME REALLY HAS FLOWN BY! AT HER TWO MONTH CHECK UP SHE WEIGHED 10.5 POUNDS, AND WAS 22.5 INCHES LONG! (SHE WAS 6.11 & 19.5 INCHES LONG WHEN SHE WAS BORN)! SHE ALSO HAD TO HAVE HER FIRST SHOTS (4 OF THEM ) UGH..SHE DID REALLY WELL THO BETTER THEN MOMMY I THINK! SHE ONLY CRIED FOR A MIN. AND NEEDED NO TYLENOL AND HAD NO FEVER OR SORENESS! WHAT A TROOPER! THE DR ALSO SAID SHE IS WAY AHEAD IN HER DEVELOPMENTAL SKILLS..SHES HOLDING HER HEAD UP AND LIFTING HER BODY (WHEN ON STOMACH) WAY AHEAD OF THE GAME! SHE GETS LOTS OF BELLY PLAY TIME CAUSE SHE LOVES IT! GO ELLA!

JUST IN THE LAST WEEK SHE HAS STARTED DOING SO MANY DIFFERENT THINGS! SHE NOW CAN ROLL OVER ONE WAY, SHE FOUND HER HANDS AND IS SUCKING THEM AND HER THUMB, SHE REALLY LIFTS HERSELF AND HAS ALMOST TOTAL CONTROL OF HER HEAD! SHE PLAYS ALOT NOW..AND SMILES AND LAUGHS ALL DAY! SHE WILL ALSO DO KNEE BENDS AND PUSH HER SELF UP WHILE U HOLD HER HANDS! ITS CRAZY ITS LIKE SHE WANTS TO WALK!! SHE LOVES TO LISTEN TO HER DADDY SING AND READ TO HER..AND SHE TOTALLY RESPONDS TO HIM WHEN HE DOES! SOME NIGHTS ARE BETTER THEN OTHERS STILL THE MOST SHE WAKES UP IS EVERY 3 HRS..BUT THE OTHER NIGHT WE GOT 6 :) YEAH FOR SLEEP! WE ALSO STARTED PUTTING HER IN HER CRIB..SHE REALLY LOVES TO PLAY IN THERE BUT IS STILL LEARNING THAT'S WHERE SHE IS SUPPOSED TO SLEEP...LOL (LAUGH OUT LOUD..FOR U AUNT MARY! :) JUST NOW WAS THE FIRST TIME I PUT HER DOWN FOR A NAP AWAKE IN HER CRIB SHE PLAYED FOR A LITTLE AND ACTUALLY FELL ASLEEP BY HER SELF ALL ON HER OWN YEAHHHH ..AND I JUST CHECKED ON HER AND SHE IS UPSIDE DOWN IN THE CRIB! HEHEHE I PUT HER IN ONE WAY AND SHE TURNED HER SELF THE TOTAL OTHER WAY..ANOTHER FIRST! GUESS SHE WANTS TO LOOK AT THE WALL INSTEAD!


SHE IS JUST SO PRECIOUS, AND WE LOVE HER SO MUCH!! I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT I CAN STAY HOME (MINUS THE TWO DAYS A WEEK I WORK) AND WATCH HER GROW! (A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO THOSE FRIENDS THAT HAVE HELPED WATCH HER WHILE WE WORK!) IT IS JUST AS IMPORTANT FOR HER TO BE WITH SOMEONE WE TRUST AND VALUE, WHEN WE CANT BE!! I AM JUST SO THANKFUL THAT I CAN BE HOME WITH HER MOST OF THE TIME!
