Ellie's new toys!

We had an amazing Valentines and Anniversary (18th) this month! Brantley got Ellie her first Valentine stuffed animal-Purcy the Lion! He giggles, growls and shakes-Ellie LOVES him! I think she think he taste great too, she likes to eat his paw! We have also started putting her in her Einstein play station thing-which she loves!! She might only be 4 months, but the girl can reach the bottom, turns herself all around the thing! It's amazing to see her discover things! 

Rice Cereal!!

Our little Ellie is getting to be such a big girl! She started eating rice cereal for the first time last night! She even ate it off the spoon, which we were really impressed by! She loved it too! She ate almost the whole bowl (which wasn't very big, but still). So here are some pics of our little messy rice cereal eater & Daddy in his blue scrubs with Ellie in her pink scrubs...

Happy Valentine's Day to all our friends and family! We are so thankful and feel so special to have Ellie in our lives! Every holiday just seems so much more special now that we have her to celebrate them with! Hope y'all have a good one!

Winter Storm 2009

I can't wait to get back to the South, this winter white stuff is for the birds!! All Lexington schools have been canceled this whole week, we have at least an inch of ice and at least 4 inches of snow and more to come! I must say at first the scenery is beautiful, but then you realize how cold it is and the damage it is causing! Here is Ellie's first snow storm (hopefully there aren't many more to come!)

Ellie in Mississippi

We just returned to Lexington after being in Ms for a month! We had so much fun, the time went by way too fast! This week we are expecting A LOT of snow, which doesn't make me too happy! I'm a southern girl who likes the weather to be warm or just plain hot! While we were in Ms, we went all over the place! Ellie has now been to Jackson/Madison, Greenwood, Doddsville, and Hattiesburg (our soon to be home!!) Here are some pics of us in Mississippi!

Mississippi Ellie!

Christmas time in Mississippi! Ellie's first big road trip to Mississippi! We made it home late Monday night & Ellie was such a good traveler! Thank God she loves her carseat & of course her little fish tank on the back of the seat! For her first time in MS, she sure has covered some ground! To Jackson we went till Xmas Eve, Xmas day (& Daddy's bday) till the 28th & then back to Jxn for awhile till Daddy comes back the 9th! Santa was GREAT to Ellie! We can't wait till next year when she can actually see the man in Red! It's so much fun to have her here and to celebrate such a special time with family! We hope all of you have had a great Xmas and we hope everyone has a Happy New Year!

4 weeks Tomorrow

I can't believe it has been 4 weeks already! The time has FLOWN by, but it has been such an amazing experience so far! It's crazy to see how much she has grown in these 4 weeks! Brantley has started his crazy rotation at the hospital, so we bundle up, bring him dinner and visit with him on the nights he has cross covering and doesn't come home:( It's nice to be able to see him even for a couple minutes! I'm sure it's not easy on him being away from Ellie either! But here are a couple more pics...
