Big Baby

Ellie is 3 Months!!!
She is growing and growing and growing. Her nicknames are chunky piggie, rollie pollie, and chubbers. I know but I can't help it you should see her rolls! Just so you can get an idea at her 2 month check up (2.5months) she was 13 1/2 pounds and 24 1/2 inches long! She is now officially in all 6 month clothing yes 6 months at barely 3 months old.
Ellie is really not interested in masturing any physical milestones like trying to roll over with tummy time she loves looking at her toys and is starting to reach she got one in her hand a couple of times and her face was priceless I wish I had the camera at that moment when she realized that somehow she was able to use her hands and hold a toy! She loves sitting in my lap and rocking some days too much and will only nap in my arms like today (can't get the house work done and the kids just make a huge mess but I can sit and update this blog) but already enjoys looking at books! I am so exicted because the twins could never hold still for a book. She loves to talk she coos and goos and smiles! We are supposed to go in to get pictures done this Friday but we are all sick miserable baby being so congested so soon she will have her first professional photo shoot so Grandma photos should be coming in the mail soon.
Ellie, you are such a blessing to us we are so grateful that you joined our family I already cannot imagine life without you.
Eric is finally warming up to "baby" so much that he is constantly talking about wanting a baby brother.... whoa, what... uh Eric seriously after all we have been through.

Fall Day

So far its been a pretty crazy year with a very eventful pregnancy! I will never forget the words from a Dr at about my 15th week mark when she mentioned "I dont see any fluid and not much of a heartbeat how about you come in next week (D&C) cause how long do you want to stay pregnant when I see no hope" This was not my Dr. but happened to be the Dr on call when I was in labor with Emma and then the twins so I thought I would use her this go around so she can deliver all our babies. That night Brian and I had a lot of prayer I later had a lot of humble quiet moments talking with my Emma throughout the rest of the pregnancy (I went back to my Dr) The pregnancy then of course continued and was going along very well until my body wanted to go into very early labor and was on complete bed rest some of those days were very difficult and I had a lot of humble moments alone in my very quiet house. I just know that Emma had a lot to do with my Ellie coming to this world. When Ellie was born we kept thinking she has a resemblence but was just not like Ethney and Eric until Brian said Emma (Ellie has her chin and nose). On September 25th our Emma was born 6 years ago. Emma, you truely are my angel baby and at my quiet humble moments I can fill your presence in our home.

Fair Time

Our fair is not until September and of course it was a bit chilly but the kids had a blast and were so excited! We went one night after Brian got home from work before his parents left back home to Arizona so they could watch Ellie. Our fair experience only consists of rides as that is all the kids have patience for and they love it so that is all we did bought them an unlimited ride bracelet and we told them to ride as many rides as we could fit in the small time frame we had before it got too late and Mom could get home to baby.
