Another Month Older and Wiser!

Ella is now 8 months old. I cannot believe how fast the time has gone! It seems like just yesterday I was in the hospital anxiously waiting to meet my precious little girl!
Ella has 2 bottom teeth and 1 top tooth is coming in! She bites everything!! She tries SO hard to crawl. Aunt Anna and Aunt Becca have been working with her every morning to get her to crawl. She will get up on her arms or her legs but not at the same time. She does scoot backwards.
She just figured out that she can wave to you when you say hi. She waves with her whole arm. It is pretty cute!
This morning she tried eating yogurt bites for the first time. She wasn't able to figure out how to get them off her hand and into her mouth (they would stick to her hands). But, that will come!
She is sleeping through the night! Hallelujah!

Enjoy some pictures that Aunt Anna took!

7 Months old and our Lake Powell Trip

Little Ella is now 7 months old! Her little personality is so cute! She loves to laugh-especially when someone sneezes! She thinks that is hilarious! She is always smiling and talking. She will talk to me all day long.Her favorite song is "I am a Child of God". She loves when we hum this song to her at night!

While we were in Utah we had the chance to go with Darrin's family to Lake Powell! We had a great time but it was so hot! Ella loved spending time with her cousin Lily! They were so cute together.

Here are a few pictures from the trip! We spent a lot of time in the lake (yes with the fish....even I got in the water....it was too hot not to!!), swimming in the blow up pool on the house boat, relaxing, and enjoying the company.
