Baby cheeks

I love, and have always loved Ella's chubby chubby cheeks.
They're perfect.

This one is old, but case and point

Our good friend Xavier

And the many faces of El

Also, there is something so darling about little baby bums.

P.s. Sorry for the long absence, finals/end of semester madness was insane!

It's been a long time

Sorry, I've had lots and lots going on for the last little while.

So it's been a while.

But this one's for you Grandma's!

Ella doesn't crawl, she scoots!

Observe

New Puppy!

We got a new puppy.

His name is Conan.

He's a shepherd mix.

And... he and ella are best friends!

This is how she sucks her thumb

Not quite a picture with a puppy, but still very cute.

And I threw this one in just for fun, because Ella is clearly loving life.

Recent Happenings

This is Ella helping me to clean the bathrooms.
She hangs out and plays with toys, and I clean.

Already a MAC user. 

I'm so proud

We went to the park, and played on the swings

Ella loved it!

Our life revolves around me studying and Ky at work.

Sorry we aren't very interesting!

Daycare

Ella had her first day of daycare.

Kyle and I were very sad...

but Ella was pumped!

P.S. Notice the teeth! The front right tooth isn't in quite yet. Teething is fun...

Better late than never..

I found a whole bunch of pictures from our trip to California, so I decided to post them even though that was about 2 months ago.

Dorothy and Ella 

(Sorry for the blurry. I still think it's cute)

Aunt Elise demonstrating what Ella would look like with longer hair

Ella and one of the twins

(Sorry to Ruby and Norah! I just can't tell them apart)

Eating a book

Playing in the sand with Grandma

Feet in the ocean. Don't worry, she loves it

I may feel like a creep saying this, but I love the way Ella sleeps.
