Around the House

Just chillin around the house

We love our Wubbanub!

Thanks to Aunt Janelle for the tip!

Ella seems to like the computer

My personal favorite!

Ella's Big Night Out

We were still in Los Alamos for New Years, so we decided to go to the bowling alley that Grandpa Pearce works at to celebrate. This means that it was Ella's first night out on the town.

Aunt Riss decided to get Ella a new party outfit. 

After all, her clothes were a week old. That is just plain unacceptable. 

The party outfit

It's cold in Los Alamos, so she has a snow suit.

The first time we put it on, Ralphie came to mind

"I can't put my arms down!"

Paul and Ella. 

Such a party!

Bath Time

Soap

Before Bath

Doesn't she look so content and ready for a nap?

During Bath

Not nearly so happy.

Thank goodness Donna was here to show me the ropes, otherwise I might not have had the heart...

After the bath.

So happy once again. But the process did one good thing, woke her up!

Also, her hair is the most fun to play with. It is so wonderful and long!

Ella's Here!

Ella Nicole Pearce:
Born December 24th, 2010
Weighed 8 pounds 0.8 ounces
19 1/2 inches long (tho the cone head may have contributed significantly to this particular fact)

Daddy's so proud! 

Like I said, the cone head probably gave Ella a lot of extra length

Ky and Ella

Cone head is starting to go away 

I look puffy, but Ella and Ky look cute

Baby Girl's Room

Donna, Jeff, Amadou, Rayna and Josh came into town to help set up baby's room, and I love it!

Sorry that it's dark. The curtains don't totally block out the light, but this is the view from the hallway.

I love love love this crib!

Thanks to Marissa for the early christmas present! It looks so very cute on the wall!

Now that the room is ready, so am I. Come on kid! There isn't anything else to wait for!

Baby's First Pictures

3D ultrasound pictures are really cool! I had no idea we could get such detailed pictures from just an ultrasound. 

She looks pretty cramped to me..

That's all we have for now. Things should get more interesting in just about a month!
