This winter is going by quickly (thank goodness). Mike and I can't wait for warm weather to get out and take Ella out in the stroller and go down and play on the beach!! We are definitely getting cabin fever these days! But as fast as time seems to be going, summer should be here shortly, right? I hope so. On Tuesday, Aunt Sarah came over to visit and brought many hugs and kisses for Ella! We took E out Friday night when Mike and I went out for Chinese and then shopping. Ella giggled as she rode the cart into the store...funny feeling in her tummy from the parking lot vibration of the cart. So cute! Today we went to my parent's house for lunch. It was very yummy! My mom is going in for spinal surgery so it may be awhile before she gets to hold Ella so she got her fill today!
Ella is really starting to enjoy books, as you can see an example in the photo. She loves looking at the page with the mirror. I am enjoying being home with her everyday to see all her developments! She is a real joy! Ella has been sleeping for 11-12 hours a night for many weeks now. I am very grateful for the great rest I am getting at night! I must say, Ella is a laid back, easy going baby. We couldn't ask for anything more right now. I love her current age. It's an age of self discovery and lots of smiles, mixed with many moments of snuggly hugs. I am going to savor this age before teething and mobility from crawling starts. Things may get a little challenging I hear :)
Also this week, Ella has discovered the little black animal that lives here too. (Our dog, Sadie). She tracks Sadie's movements with her eyes around the room. Sadie doesn't pay too much attention to Ella though. Sadie still feels like she's our #1 baby. We just let her believe that. Hopefully Ella and Sadie will grow to be friends.
