Her First Giggle

So we were just sitting here and Tyler's mom is holding Ella and she just giggled! Her first giggle! Grandma Karen was making noises to her and she just loved it! She's also found her fingers and loves looking at them. She'll suck on her hands and every once in awhile she'll find her thumb! Hopefully she won't get hooked on sucking on her thumb. We all know how much I loved mine!

Some new things to blog about...

Ella is doing really well these days! She is the happiest baby I have ever seen! She smiles all the time and makes a lot of noises. Sometimes she is so loud and I love to just listen to her 'talk'. She is so much fun and even when she's crabby she still tends to make us smile! She had a Dr's appointment a couple of weeks ago and she weighs 10 pounds 8 ounces! She's even got some chunk to her! Our Dr says that she's doing really well and doesn't have any concerns! She has started looking at her hands and trying to figure out what they are! Its amazing to just watch this little person and see how much she has already grown! She will be 11 weeks this Tuesday! The time is just flying by too fast!
So a couple of days ago I was outside for a second and when I came back in and shut the door it startled Ella. She never woke up but her arms went up and just kind of stayed there for a good 5 minutes or so. It was too cute so of course I had to take a picture!

So this past week we had some really nice days! One afternoon we went and just hung out in our back yard. Teddy liked it because we were running around playing with him and he could just lay on the deck and not be shaking from the cold! Ella just kinda slept and it was so nice and relaxing! Ella wore her bunny hat and she is so cute when she wears it. My cousin Kelly bought her the cutest Easter outfit and with it she got this hat. (Thanks Kelly) So here are a few pictures!

That's all for now but hopefully I'll be better at this and post more pictures!!!!

Ella's Blessing Day!!!

We blessed Ella this past Sunday, March 1st. It was such an amazing experience. Tyler said the blessing and did a wonderful job! It was incredible to have most all of our family down and we are truely thankful for them. Ella was blessed in my dress that I was blessed in almost 24 years ago. Jenny Duce had made the dress for me and it is so neat that Ella was able to wear it too. We took a ton of pictures but I will only put up a few!
