Ella's first photo shoot!

A photographer I am not but luckily Aunt Lindsay is.  She took the most beautiful pictures of Ella during her first month and I just have to share!  These are just a few of the many shots we took.  Lindsay is so talented and I can't thank her enough for all the time she took to get these amazing pictures of our sweet baby girl.  You may recognize some of these from her birth announcement!











March Highlights!

We have now settled into being a family of four.  Mike unfortunately has been working out of town so he leaves early Monday mornings and we don't get to see him until Friday evening.  Luckily for me I have Grandma ( Mike's Mom) to help me as I try to navigate being a mother of two!

Here is Grandma with her girls



Here are some one month pictures of Ella!





Here is Lily with her two favorite items - her binky and her beloved Bijou! ( Lily named her lamb Bijou - which ironically means Jewel in French!


Here are my two girls after bath time!








Ella's first month!

While it is mostly a blur to me I wanted to share some pictures and highlights from her first month.  Lily adjusted really well to her new sister.  I think after a couple of weeks she realized this was a permanent situation!
 Here are a couple pictures of our little angel fast asleep!


Ella's first bath!


Here is Lily dressing up - we call this Bucket Head!

The first few days!


Well I have been meaning to start a blog forever but time as always just slips away from me.  The girls are growing up so fast and learning so many new things everyday.  Lily is 2.5 and Ella just turned 4 months this past week.  Here are some pics from those first precious days!
