One Month!



Ella turned one month on Sunday and boy has it flown by!  Her days are filled with endless cycles of eating, a little bit of smiling and watching mommy, daddy, or windows, some sleepy fussing, and napping.

She loves:
Dancing with her mom or dad
Staring at the light
Eating
Pooping right after we change her
Cuddling
Riding in the car
Going for walks
Going to movies (just saw Iron Man 2-very loud and she slept right through it!)
Getting really fussy right when Mom and Dad are sitting down to dinner
Sticking out her tongue

She doesn't love:
Bath time (we're hoping that changes soon)
Staying awake for very long after eating
Letting her mom and dad sleep at 2:30 and 5 or 6 am

Once I learned where Ella will peacefully nap, I was finally able to get a few things done during the day.  We'll cry when she gets too big to sleep in her car seat.


She is finally doing much better at night.  Every once in a while she'll give us a five hour stretch.  But even when she wakes up more frequently, she goes back to sleep quickly.  She smiles a ton now, which makes those 3 am feedings bearable.

On Fridays, Ella likes to go up to Evergreen to see her small group friends and boyfriends.  Here she is with her boyfriend, Wyatt.  It appears she's already making him drool.


Here she is with her other boyfriend Boden's mom, Stephanie.


Stay tuned for more fun pics as she begins interacting more!

  1. I love this girl.....in spite of the parental comments on what "she" likes or dislikes, hmmm sounds more like Mom & Dad's commentary. She looked like Daddy last week....looks like Mommy this week. Love the pics. Wanna hug, smell and be with you all......maybe not the smell part....only baby Ella.
