Christmas - Round 1

This weekend we headed to Arkansas to celebrate Christmas with Zach's side of the family. Ella is THE BEST little traveler around! We are so blessed that she is one of those easy going babies. It was so much fun to see everyone and watch Ella interact with her cousins. They absolutely adore her and did not leave her side all weekend. I felt like I was on vacation because I hardly had to lift a finger. Good times!

Marley and Ella

She loved opening presents, but liked playing with the paper and bows even more. Most of the pictures are of the top of her head because she would not look up for even a second once she got started! :)

Opening her first Christmas present ever...




She soon got the hang of it and dove right in!








I love how she sits with one leg tucked under her and the other kicked out in front.


Her favorite thing to do was to play with the boxes and paper...

We had such a wonderful weekend celebrating with family.

Looking forward to this week: Ella's 9 month check-up tomorrow, our Christmas play date on Tuesday, Christmas Eve and Christmas day with my side of the family, AND Zach being off work for the next 2 weeks! What a busy, but exciting week ahead! Hope everyone is having a great holiday!
