Baby Boy

I still need to post pics from Ella's bday party, but had to update everyone with this sweet pic of my boy. He is 9 weeks old today. How is that possible? Check out this precious shot. Warning: You may just want to eat him up :) Enjoy!!

Ella's 3rd Birthday

Last Friday was Ella's 3rd birthday. We headed to Columbia for a fun filled day. And it was just that! We took Ella to her favorite place....Bonkers. I didn't get any pictures of her playing on the equipment, but here is a cute shot of her and Daddy taking a break to play some arcade games.

So serious! :)

After some play time at Bonkers, we headed to the mall. We had a little shopping to do, and Ella always wants to ride the merry-go-round. Which she did. 3 times.

No pictures, but we spent a lot of time in Barnes & Noble letting Ella pick out some new books. This girl LOVES to read. Yes, I know most kids do. But she would honestly rather sit with a stack of books than do almost anything else. So she picked out TONS of new books and has been enjoying them every day since. I am glad she is growing up with an appreciation of books :)

Here's my girl on the way home....tuckered out. We skipped nap so this little 30 minute snooze was all she got that day. There's too much fun to be had on your birthday to sleep, right? :)

So sweet.

Every year on Ella's birthday, we head to Alex's, our fave pizza place in town. This year was no exception. We enjoyed the yummy pizza, and our favorite appetizer.....cheese balls. Nothing healthier than little bites of fried cheddar cheese. Yum-yum! Here is me and my birthday girl at dinner.

Daddy and his girl.

The whole family. Hey, Noah....you're not looking at the camera! ;)

Such a big girl! 3 years old!

I say this every year, but I can't believe another year has passed. Where does the time go? This little lady is growing into the most amazing person. Her heart, her charm, her fun-loving personality. And her sense of humor....my oh my is this little girl funny. I am always telling her how much she makes me laugh, so her newest thing is, "you know, mom? you make me laugh!" Wow. (clutching my chest). This girl owns my heart. Happy Birthday baby!

3 Years Old

My baby girl turned 3 years old on Friday. It was a great day, we spent it in Columbia going to Bonkers and shopping at the mall. Ella spent a lot of time at Barnes & Noble picking out some new books (her favorite thing!) and we had such a perfect day. Today is her big Princess party and she is so excited. So we're gearing up for a house full of people in a few hours, and we're so excited to celebrate the most beautiful, warm hearted 3 year old we know. Happy Birthday Ella Grace. We are so proud to be your Mommy & Daddy.
