Ella

My little Ella. She is the sweetest little girl. Well unless you find her tired or hungry, but can you blame her?? She is growing up so fast and is doing tons of new stuff. She loves to hear you sing her theme song Ella. She loves to sing also. I think there are times that she sing Ella, but she also likes to sing Ariel. She can say Dada, and loves to cry out Mama. She loves her big brother and sister. When ever she sees them she lights up and has a big smile. That makes me so happy. She is in the stage that everything goes in her mouth and changing her diaper has been a little crazy. Today I found an apple seed in it!!

She has just learned how to pull up on things and now tries to do it on everything. She figured that out last night.

Here she is army crawling, although today I saw her up on her knees.

Here she is singing like Ariel. She is so precious. She loves to play patti-cake and is trying to do it too. At her 6 month check up she was 16.4# and 27 inches tall. She is so fun to have around and is my little shadow. She loves to be where mama is, but if daddy doesn't give her a hung when gets home he gets told how mad she is at her.  Her nicknames are EllaBella, Punkin, Punkin Pie, and Sweetie. We are so blessed to have her and her brother and sister in our lives. Because of them we are more fun and there is never a dull moment!

Why

can I not keep up on this blog?? I need to do Ella's 6 month post which now should be a 7 month post and our camping trip and whatever else. I guess I better get started. So I guess I will do everything else and save a special post to my little punkin.


So first things first. We took the kids to family night at Camden yards. I think they had a pretty good time. We saw our good friends the Lalliss family there and sat with them for a little bit. We made it to the 5th or 7th inning then went home. Max skipped his car nap and was not happy by the end of it.

She does not look happy here. She ate a hot dog and was much better.

Max has started school. He loves the fact that his little has grown up into a bigger school. He had a rough first day because he was up late playing video games. Does that sound like a Daddy we know?? Anyways I am paying more attention to what he does when he goes to bed as to not let him stay up too late. We had no idea he was playing games til past 9! He didn't make a sound, I thought he was sleeping.

Lucie has been playing a mommy roll recently and is putting her puppy in her dress like it is a bjorn. It is so funny. She loves her puppy and can be heard having conversations with it about anything. She has also blossomed into a singer and will be singing anything from I am a Child of God to Single Ladies. It is so fun to have it be quite and hear her singing.

One night the kids got really dirty after dinner and took a nice big bubble bath. They turned on the jacuzzi and quickly learned they can make even bigger bubbles.

I have been into getting crafty and worked on my sewing machine to get it working again. I made some baby legs for Ella and I think they are so cute. Lucie thought she needed a tutu to go with them.

Last but not least our camping trip. The kids had a blast and made some new friends. One of the girls actually lives out here by us. So I will just post the pictures and let you all enjoy.

Everyone loved her hair, but I thought the morning hair was the best.

Paw Paw getting ready to put his boat in the water.

Wizard Max. He is so funny.

most of the time she was perfectly happy sitting in her pack n' play playing.
