Aloha!

Been a very busy few weeks and I ran out of time for updates. We are heading to Hawaii for a MUCH needed vacation tomorrow. I promise to have full updates dating back to the last post soon after we get back. Aloha for now!!

Updates coming

Sorry for the silence but updates coming soon...

We go walking

Ella's new trick :)

A first

Every St. Patty's day there is a street party by Jim's office and is a fun way to spend the afternoon with a few friends and a few beers. As this is no place to bring a baby, we went back and forth as to whether Ella...and perhaps mama as well....was ready to be babysat. Ella has been pretty good with the bottle lately but mostly only from me so I wasn't sure I could leave her if she wouldn't take the bottle from my mom. After much back and forth, Jim and I decided last minute I could just fatten Ella up and make a run for the door and meet him for an hour or so in the city for a little St. Patty's fun. Babcia Beata and Ella were getting along just great so I fed her and made a run for it. And guess what? It went great! Babcia Beata took wonderful care of Ella, napping, playing, entertaining her. Ella even drank half a bottle right before we got home. Everyone was happy - Ella got to spend time with Babcia, Babcia got to spend time with Ella, and Jim and I got to spend a couple hours together seeing a few friends and having a few beers. Thank you Babcia!

On a Sunday

Rainy days are best spent in your pj's and a few toys by your side.

5 months

Today Ella turned 5 months! We spent the day shopping with Babcia Beata and stopped off for cookies and coffee. Ella scored some super cute outfits...and mama did too! At 5 months, Ella is continuing to give us nothing but pure happiness. She is starting to roll over from belly to back (though I seem to miss it every time!) and no longer sleeps wedged in her sleep positioner as she has discovered how fun it is to move around her crib and have us find her faced the complete opposite of how she went to sleep. She is also starting to get better at sitting up by herself and is just so curious. And of course, this means checking out everything with her tiny hands for texture and putting things in her mouth to see how they taste. Since there are so many great things to discover, Ella has decided there is no time for napping. Who needs sleep anyway?

The Yosemite pics are up...check them out! --->>

Ella was very busy today

After a rare 2 hour nap, Ella and I took a quick trip to our favorite fish market to pick up fresh salmon for our weekly fish dinner...but not before she did a little light reading.

When we got home, Ella practiced standing...on her own ;)
