Holiday Weekend at Nanny's

Well on Sunday morning we decided to go to Nanny's house in Terre Haute. We packed up our stuff and went on our way. Ella slept the whole way there in the car. And let me add that she no longer has a pacifier. Yes you heard that right she as been too sick to breathe out of her nose, so when she would have her paci she spit it out. She has done wonderful without it! Anyway, we swam at Nanny's new pool and hung out with all of our family. We had a great time and will be going back next weekend for another swim party for my birthday.

Play Date and Crazy Blogging Girls!

Well Shannon and I both started to blog again(key word) at the same time. We were both trying to figure out how all of our friends have such cute blogs. So, we made a blogging play date out of it. Pat took pictures of us downstairs in the playroom because he thought it was hilarious. We were both on our laptops and Ella and Addison were playing. In the end we figured out the settings and here we are with fully functional blogs! Yeah for us!

Amy's Wedding

On August 18th Ella's babysitter Amy got married. Everything at the reception was beautiful including the cake! Yum! Above you will see Amy with Ella. Ella loves her Amy! We are so lucky to have someone that takes such good care of our baby. Pat and I have also become good friends and neighbors with Amy and Gary.
Congrats Amy and Gary!!!!

Well today we cleaned up the basement and made Ella a new playroom. The Pictures above are of Ella, Daddy and Roscoe playing in the new room. We can't wait to have all of our friends over to play.

Ella's 9 months Pictures

My friend Liz from work is so creative and an excellent photographer. She took Ella's 9 month pictures at Broadripple Park on a really chilly morning. My mom (Nanny) joined us for the pictures. Ella was such a good girl and loved having her picture taken. We all had such a good time at the park and the pictures turned out awesome.

Daddy and Ella ready for a morning walk

Pat was getting Ella ready to go on a walk at 8am on Saturday morning. It was a cool morning so he thought that they need sweatshirts with their hoods pulled up. She kept touching his nose and head to figure out was he was doing with that on his head.
They are definitely 2 peas in a pod.
