Well, blogging has definitely taken a back seat here lately! With the rain and little miss Ella feeling under the weather we have not been up to very much. With that said, we have still had plenty to do, but they were just not that "blog worthy". :) There have been a few things that I would like to post, but have not been able to catch them on video. {E is obsessed with looking at the video screen!} So, here are some future postings in the works and also things I don't want to forget...
*Ella Grace has learned to count to 10 (and sometimes 11 and 12)
*She can recognize and say the letters of the alphabet when looking at them
***More updates to come in her 18 month post in a few days. :)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I did start MOPS at my church last week and it is so much fun! It gives me the chance to connect with other Christian moms twice a month and enjoy great conversation, food, and friendship. Ella has a great time too! Here are a few pictures I took of her before we left the other morning. She is usually WAY too busy to stop and look at the camera, so action shots it is!
Zach went dove hunting for 3 days last week, so when Friday rolled around we were ready for him to be home! We were excited to spend some family time together for sure. Since the weather was suppose to be gloomy all weekend, on Saturday we decided to make a trip to Central Market to pick up fresh ingredients for white bean chicken chili. CM has the best produce so we knew it would be delicious! We noticed that Ella was not acting like her normal upbeat self on the ride back, and when we got home found that she had a fever. Poor thing is still running a fever off and on, but isn't showing ANY other signs of being sick. No runny nose, tummy ache, etc. She has been a little more fussy than normal though and very clingy, so we have had plenty of cuddle time (in our jammies!) the past few days. Selfishly, I love it...not that she is not feeling well, but that she wants to snuggle with me. :)
Here she is with our favorite pink blanket watching Elmo.
Other than that, we are still rocking along! Miss Emerson is growing and beginning to move a lot more in the past week. I absolutely LOVE feeling the little thuds inside! I go to the dr. again next week, but for now the only thing I have to report is that she is now the length of a banana. :)
***Oh! If you remember when I was pregnant with Ella, my OB was also pregnant and due about a week ahead of me. She ended up delivering 3 days before me, so I had another dr. actually deliver Ella. Well, this time around we joked with her about not getting pregnant so she could deliver Emmy, and come to find out she is pregnant again! This time she is a month behind me, so she should be able to be in the OR this time. :) I love that she is always prego the same time as me though because we get to share stories and feelings that we are going through at that exact moment. Who knows, maybe she will have another boy and we could arrange a couple of marriages??? Ha!
Hope you are all having a great week!

Ella looks like such a little girl, so grown up. Hope she is feeling better.
I LOVE the pic of Lella with her lipstick!!! Emma has the exact same shade ;)
And I can't believe she can count to 10!!! You have one smart little cookie on your hands!
#1...that is CRAZY how your dr. is pregnant again at the same time you are.
#2...I'm proud of Ella learning her letters and numbers. Can she come over to teach Barrett. He's not one to sit and learn, unless it involves being OUTSIDE.
#3...Sorry Ella isn't feeling well. Give her some extra love from us. I hope she gets better soon.
