We are doing just great here in Logan. We have been fixing our townhouse up to a good livable state (it's very old). Our friends who were living here before didn't take the best care of the yard so there is LOTS to do. Ella just loves being outside, and really loves sitting on the grass. Let us know if there are any photos you'd like to see, or anything we can do. Sorry some of the posts are so redundant, I'll try to do better about posting different photos! Thanks

I Love You Through and Through
by Bernadette Rossetti-Shustak illustrated by Caroline Jayne Church

"I love your top side. I love your bottom side.
I love your inside and outside.
I love your happy side, your sad side,
your silly side, your mad side.
I love your fingers and toes, your ears and nose.
I love your hair and eyes your giggles and cries.
I love you running and walking, silent and talking
I love you through and through yesterday, today and tomorrow, too."

Elleah this is your favorite book, (if that's possible at 6 1/2 months!) I read it every night and you just look at the adorable pictures and laugh. You just got your 2nd tooth this week and have been such a little trooper, you hardly cry and still wake up your happy little self! XO

I love your giggles and cries

Those are two very cute little teeth!

I love your mouth and nose

silent and talking...I love you through and through

Back to regular updates! We haven't had the internet but we're back now! We are moved in and just doing great! Elleah is sitting like a pro trying with all her might to crawl, and babbles constantly! She is growing healthy and strong and is just the happiest little thing ever!

Elle and daddy right before meeting with the judge!
Both Mike and I had to testify! It was such an experience to stand before a judge and commit to love, and care for your child with all your might! It's an experience every parent should have

BLESSING TIME!!

rub a dub dubby!

All By Myself!

Sitting, Eating, Finding

Sitting! She does really good and only has to be rescued every once in a while!

Wow! look at me go, balancing this large hat on my head!

Eating! She thinks she doesn't need any help with her bottle or her regular food. It's VERY messy, but she is one happy baby!

I LOVE PEAS!

Finding! "Look I found my Feet!"
She also finds EVERYTHING in sight to grab onto. I've really had to baby proof! If it can be picked up she will find it and put it in that cute little mouth of hers!

Sorry about the yucky green baby food photos!

Baseball and One little Piggy!
We put Elleah's hair in her first little piggy tale! So cute! Here are some photos from an Astros game we went to!

"Does my hair look different?" My very first little Piggy!

It was just so cute!

YEAH Our first Astros game! And guess what? They actually WON...I think we're good luck!

The stadium was AMAZING! It's indoors!

GO! GO! GO!

Leah loves eating faces!

We had an amazing night, with some amazing friends!

Happy Easter!

We have had a really great week trying to introduce this special holiday to this darling little one! Mike and I have some fun holiday traditions, and it was so great to do them with Ella

She looked so cute in her Easter dress!

Leah wasn't sure why we thought it was cute to have her wear ears!





We dyed eggs!

She kept wanting to eat the grass!
