Little Wonder

Hey everyone! I hope you have had a splendid week! I sure did. You wanna know why? I graduated to the kitchen sink now that my cord fell off. The water is fun!

Last Friday Daddy and I shared a celebration. I turned 1 month old and Daddy turned 28 years old. It was fun! I was kind of grumpy and I wanted to move all day. We celebrated by going out for pizza, mmmm! Then we came home and ate homemade German Chocolate Cake. Mommy and I made it special for Daddy!

Grandpa Tom and I really bonded. He liked to take me on walks. We walked around my neighborhood, to the Yogurt Mill, and at the beach. We got along really well. I can't wait to see him again.

I have continued to grow. I am almost in the next size diaper. Mommy and Daddy say before too long I will be in school and dating boys. Yuck, boys are just plain silly!

Right now I don't like to sleep that much. I want to take it all in. Mommy and Daddy have to try hypnotics or something on me. They bounce and sing, swaddle and turn, and run the vacuum and I fall asleep for a bit, but then spruce right up! The world is my playground!

So long! Go Tigers!

Love,

Ella

Almost 1 Month!

I am 4 weeks old now! Yippee!

This last week brought some very new and exciting adventures. I went for my first run at Lake Murray. It was too fun! I lost my umbilical chord, helped Daddy vacuum, and meet my Grandpa Tom, too. He got in super early this morning. He had a very very long flight and some bizarre travels.

I decided that I was going to grow a lot. I was so hungry and couldn't stop eating. I let Mommy and Daddy know it every time. For some reason it's just that time.

I also get really angry at around 7:15 p.m. every night. Something just clicks and I really lose my cool. I know that Mommy and Daddy get frustrated, but they are good to me. I think it's just a phase and am excited to move on.

I am really looking forward to the rest of the week. I will turn one month on Friday. That's Daddy's birthday, too. Mommy and I are going to make German Chocolate Cake for him.

Mommy and I are really bonding. We are best friends. She is lots of fun and takes care of me!

Until next week!

Three Down...

I have just completed my third week of life. So far, I am having a blast. Everyday I experience something new and interesting. I think that bath-time is my favorite of all. At first I wasn't too sure, but now I am sold. I wish I could take a bath all the time.

One funky thing that happened, is that I got a little sick over the weekend. My breath smelled sour and I spit up. That was a first and only for me. No thanks to that for me!

Grandma Linda left last weekend. She was a big help to Mommy and Daddy. They were really happy with her visit.

Over the last week, I have gone on several walks and my first trip to Lake Murray. I liked the trip there and I saw my friend Ashlynn Coon. It was sweet!

I am so excited about the Tigers! Daddy likes to watch them. Tigers all the way!
