Tons of pictures

The last few weeks have been really busy but so fun. We have already had 2 Christmases and we have 2 more still between both our families. Ella is growing so fast and she is crawling all over the place. She is learning to stand up and walk but she still holds on for balance. In the last few weeks she has learned to wave and give high fives. She is such a good baby and is rarely upset. Dustin and I feel spoiled that she sleeps 11 or 12 hours straight every night. Although, we get our excercise in during the day chasing after her. Below are some pictures of some of what we have been up to lately. Enjoy!

Playing with Daddy, one of her favorite things.


Ella in her cute Christmas dress, I had to put her in it for church a little early because it was starting to get short. She did not want to be still for pictures and these are the only two we got where she is not crawling away.



Ella eating her first french fry.


All bundled up at Gardner Village.



Opening her first Christmas present ever from Grandma Jana and Grandpa Rob.


Ella fell asleep in the car like this and I had to get a picture.


Opening another Christmas present.


Ella loves to stand at her toy bins and pull stuff out. I love this picture with her pants she can't keep up. So cute!

Such a cutie! It's fun to see pictures of her doing all the same things Reese is doing!

I love the Toy bins, such a fun idea. I don't know if Sophy will ever fall asleep in her high chair. Very talented Ella!

This last picture of Ella made me laugh because Kayla's favorite activity is pulling every book off her book shelf and taking every toy out of the toy box! I think it just a thing with this age group.

Ella is adorable. And I love the music on your blog!
