Go REBS!!!

We're getting ready for football season!!! Yeah just a month left till kick off!! Here's Ellie learning Hotty Toddy!!

Busy lil lady!!

So much has been going on the last month, that I haven't had time to update the blog in awhile! Ellie is a funny little lady, she has the best personality & doesn't miss a beat! I take her to physical therapy twice a week with me & she has now become their 'mascot' (so they say)! They can't believe that she's is always so happy, no matter what time of day, she's smiling at everyone & admiring the people in crutches:) 

She loves her bath time; I never knew that watching a little one in the tub for 15 mins could be so fun! Ellie has started crawling, especially towards Beaux! Her 2 bottom teeth have come in & the top ones are trying to come thru, but I think we have a week still before those come out! 

Uncle Jonathan & Margaret got engaged!!! We couldn't be more excited! Can't wait to see them soon! 

Daddy had the other day off, so we headed up to Cincinnati to the Newport Aquarium! Ellie LOVED the fish!! She would watch them swim over her & try to touch them! They had a bird exhibit, where you could feed the birds. I wasn't too happy with this one, but Ellie loved it! She was trying to take a bird home with her I swear!!! She kept reach & grabbing it:) My only problem was the more people kept feeding these things, the more they were going to the bathroom ON PEOPLE!!! Luckily we escaped without any incidents! 

But here are some recent pics of the little one!

Mississippi Ellie

Well, it sure has been awhile since i updated my blogs! Ellie & I have been in Mississippi for over a month now...I broke my arm at the beginning of May, had surgery on it to place a plate & 6 screws! So, to say the least I need lots of help with Ellie & I have a wonderful family who is willing to help me out! We miss Daddy more then anything though! This has been the longest we have gone with out:( Here are some pics of the growing Ellie, I can't believe she is 7 months already!!

Best Picture of the weekend!!

Of course I am a little biased, but I think this is one of the most gorgeous pics of Ellie! Brantley took it Easter Sunday after church & the 2nd pic is when I left the two of them together for an hour to list a house & I returned to have Ellie passed out in her swing with the spikes still in hair!

1st Keeneland trip & "Grits n' Bits"

Ellie had her first Keeneland experience the weekend before Easter when her Uncle Rich came to visit and go to the races! In what they call horse country (here in Lexington) you can't find anything horse related for babies! So I took it upon myself to make Ellie's outfit for her first horse race...& in the works is my new company "Grits n' Bits". If you are wondering about the Grits n' Bits; Grits stands for Girls Rich into Style and Boys into Style! I'll have more sample pics coming shortly! 

Easter '09

As you get older you forget how exciting the Easter Bunny, Santa and Birthdays are, until you have kids! It was so much fun going to easter egg hunts, church, seeing the easter bunny, etc...! I can't believe Ellie is getting so big, time has really flown by these past 6 months! We've figured out that carrots, sweet potatoes, pears, applesauce and a couple others are yummy-as for the sweet peas...Ellie turns her head left to right to get away from the spoon and this is after SEVERAL different attempts:) HA! She loves going to baseball games and ANYTHING outside where she can watch Beaux chase things! Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!

5 months!

I can't believe Ellie is almost 5 months! What an exciting 5 months it has been, we've been eating cereal for over a month now and just introduced carrots, which she LOVES! We've been to UK baseball games, a friends' bday party and LOTS of walks outside (since it FINALLY warmed up)!! We've learned to roll over, sit with a little help, laugh every time someone sneezes and are starting to show signs of teething! Can't wait to see what else she comes up with!
