OK, OK, OK......

This time no captions...seems people just like to look at the pictures.

I guess this would be her one month pictures. People ask if the first month has flown by. This is my answer. If you take it as a whole and look back, it has gone very fast. BUT...if you take it night by night at 200am-400am, it sometimes feels like she should be a teenager by now.

One side note, the other cute little baby in the picture is Ellie's cousin Owen (Stacy's brother Doug's son). We had a pretty eventful weekend up at Silver Lake this past weekend. Thanks again to Neil and Katie (and Katie's parents) for the hospitality. Again, some of my costumers asked if I had a relaxing weekend...? Well, it was fun and the weather was beautiful. However on the weekends I get to wake up and take my turn with Ellie. So it seems like I took a couple more naps than normal this weekend.

Anyways enough with the boring chatter, bring on the princess...

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....
