Happy Halloween!


We didn't get Ella a costume this year, but we did get her this adorable little outfit!  Hope everyone has a great day and eats lots of candy!

Ella and Her Jumper

Out little girl just loves playing in her exersaucer lately, she looks around at all the different toys and likes to get as many in her mouth as possible.  This weekend we got a little video to prove it :)  She also loves to look at the pretty fire - almost as much as Mommy and Lucky love laying by the fire!

Unintended Break!

Man!  I didn't intend to take blogging break, but I guess that is what happened!  Sometimes it is hard to find time during the busy work week.  I always say that I am going to blog over lunch but we only have internet explorer at work and there is no spell check.  And I can't spell.  So I don't like to do that!

Ella is such a little mover these days!  She LOVES to look all around and always need to know what is going on.  She rolls over and somehow moves all around the floor.  It is so so fun watching her these days!  She is getting close to being able to sit on her own and doesn't really like just laying on the floor anymore because she can't see enough.  Every toy that we give her ends up in her mouth and she is drooling more and more.

All smiles to pick out a pumpkin!
This week she had another little cold accompanied by a cough, but she seems to be doing a lot better today.  We had one night of pretty rough sleep because of it, but thankfully we seem to be past that now :)  She doesn't calm down to go to sleep quite as well anymore and I think it is because she doesn't want to miss anything!

I found her in her crib like this one morning - ready to go!
The other day we were all sitting on the couch and Nick was holding her and she actually scooted all the way from him to me at the other end of the couch!  She would put her head down and push forward with her legs and then look up to see how much closer she was!  She kept doing this until she was all the way there - it was quite an accomplishment for such a little girl!

Ella and Daddy napping today
Today Mommy and Ella did a little shopping while Daddy did some yard work and then we watched the BIG MSU WIN!  Now we are switching between the Tigers and Michigan and have a little fire going.  A nice day.  And we are all set for Trick or Treaters tomorrow.  Which for some reason in Wisconsin is during the day.

Believe it or not - I'm worried this won't be enough!
