4 Months!

Ellie is four months old today! She is getting so big! She is so smiley and happy most of the time and she hardly ever cries. She does like to put on her serious grump face when we go out in public or in big groups of people. That's ok though, I get all her cute laughs and smiles all to myself! She's been rolling over, grabbing and playing with her toys, cooing lots and lots and she absolutely loves us to help her stand. I think it makes her feel really accomplished. She loves when we sing to her and play peek-a-boo. She's pretty much grown out of all her 3 month outfits and is filling up her 3-6 month ones nicely.

Other news...

It's been a month since I started back to work full time. It's been an adjustment, but it's working out. It has been a little stressful with having her go to a different babysitter each day, so I'm really trying to find just one babysitter to come to our home. I think it will be better for both of us. So if any of you know someone who would be interested let me know.

Ryan finished school and now has a bachelors degree in construction management! He also was hired on as a field engineer at Geneva Rock, which he is pretty much doing the same thing he's been doing all along, but with a lot more responsibility and perks.

Summer is coming to a close and I am excited for the cooler weather. It has been pretty rainy lately and I love it! Also, our peaches are almost ready for pickin and I hope we don't have any greedy theifs around this year. I can't wait to enjoy them. I'm thinking peach cobbler.

And now on to this little peach...

Precious Day

Today was such a special day. Our little Ellie was given her name and a very special blessing by her father. We had a very intimate gathering with our close loved ones. Everyone shared such special thoughts that they had written for her and that she can keep in her memory book. My heart is so overwhelmed with joy. We love this little angel of ours so much. Ellie was able to wear this beautiful antique dress that her Nana Tawna bought so many years ago in Ireland. We know that she is looking down on her now, so happy that she could wear it. We knew she was with us all today.
 

 



 

 
This makes her look like she could be 100 years old!

Asher

I've been meaning to post this for a while, better late than never right. We had so much fun going to the pool with Matt, Asher, Mill and Michon! Asher's so dang cute! (Sorry for the poor video skills).

Photo Shoot

 
If I had all the time in the world, I would spend it taking pictures of this adorable little gal. I just can't get enough of her!

I think this might have to be one of my most favorite pictures to date.
