Baby Boy Herb: 25 week ultrasound

Had another ultrasound today of Baby Boy Herb and the doctor sent us home with a bunch of 3D Ultrasound Pics. So cool- I had to share.

Easter Bunny Visit 2010

Happy Easter from Ella!!!

I had anticipated that Ella might have a hard time with the Easter Bunny this year after seeing her fear of Santa at Christmas.... so we have been talking about going to see him for about a month now. It was a challenge, but after waiting in line 3 separate times within an hour, Ella finally got up the guts to sit next to the bunny without crying. He rewarded her with a well
deserved lollipop!

Fun in March

It's definietly March in Colorado... 70 degrees, then a foot of snow, then 70 degrees again. Ella's been passing the time indoors playing dress-up in Mom's clothes- love the heels without pants. (She got a haircut the next day, by the way. Didn't realize how bad it was until I saw this picture! )

Here is Ella eating Granddaddy's famous chili on a cold day at home.

And finally, a picture of Ella in her new Easter Bunny shirt. So adorable! It even has a little tail on the back. Love it!

Big Girl Bed

We moved Ella into her "Big Girl Bed" from the crib exactly 1 week ago today and I'm happy to report like most things with our angel child, it was much easier than we expected.

This evening, we put Ella to bed at about 8pm. Right around 9:15p, Mark and I heard her calling for me, so I went up to investigate.

Mom: Did you call me?

Ella: Yes.

Mom: Did you need something?

Ella: (slience)

Mom: Ella, Mommy is tired. Is something wrong?

Ella: I'm thinking about it Mom.

Mom: Ok, hurry up and think. What do you need?

Ella: (silence)

Mom: Ella, Mommy was sleeping. I'm going to go back to bed.

Ella: Ok Mom.

Mom: I love you, Ella. Good night.

Ella: Goodnight Mom.
