Happy Days...



Not so happy days with Great Grandma...



One of the peaceful moments of the day.




The face that says I am not awake yet.





She loves to lay on her stomach.

Things with Ellie are going well. We recently learned about overfeeding and its affect on a baby's mood/behavior. If you overfeed, you get a very fussy baby. one that does not want to sleep. After Stacy went to the doctors, they told her that Ellie was getting too much food and that she was getting 'gassy' (aka very uncomfortable). So I think we figured everything out and everyone is getting a bit more sleep.

One grandma is leaving today. My mom was up for the past couple of days and was a huge help. Andrew and Faith came up. Hopefully they had a good time. Faith discovered electricity. Not a big fan of the shock collar.

We still appreciate every ones help that we have been getting. One of these days we are going to have get everyone together that helped (move, work, babysit, ect) and have a big cook out to show our appreciation.

We'll keep you updated....

A bit more....

I am going to keep putting pictures up until she gets embarrassed by them.

Everyone is still doing well. Although the only one in the house that is still trying to figure out what all this new noise is coming from is the Hooker (aka the cat for those that are not aware of the other "princess") The cat takes off like a bat out of hell when Ellie begins to tell us that she is not too happy. Pretty funny to see a cat take off up stairs in a state of confusion. Ellie has her moments of complete breakdown like she hasn't eaten in weeks. The nights are OK. I cannot complain to much. Stacy has been amazing. She does very well soothing Ellie at night when she gets fussy. Ellie can sleep for 3 Hrs at a time, which gives everyone a bit of a rest.

We go to the doctors today to find out if she is gaining weight. Cross our fingers.
