Elle - 4 Months

Elle Belle turned 4 months last week, where has the time gone?

4 Month highlights:
- Tried Rice Cereal for the first time, not a huge fan :)
- Loves looking in the mirror
- Chews on her hands
- Lots of "talking", she has a lot to tell us!
- Doesn't love her car seat, she prefers to hold our hand while we drive (not spoiled at all :)
- Loves sitting in her Jeep walker, she holds on to the steering wheel and honks the horn
- Loves having a blanket or bib to pull over her face (I hate this so I'm constantly taking them away from her!)
- Grabbing everything...toys, the dogs, books, etc.
- sleeps 9 hours (will wake up occasionally for her binkie)
- Loves standing up
- Likes being held...and this Mama is happy to do that :)
- Starting to get scared when someone she doesn't know very well holds her (or Mommy, Daddy, Grammy or PawPaw are out of her eyesight.)
- Aunt MiMi and Uncle Nick babysat for the first time

We are so so so SO lucky that Elle spends her weekdays at Grammy & Paw Paw's.  I know she is having fun with them & Henry and I never worry about her while I'm at work.  I know she is in the best of hands. I'm always wondering if the babes are having a good day or bad day...and Grammy covers for them saying everyday they are angels.  Somehow I don't believe her.  haha

It's hard to believe that 4 months ago I was in the hospital waiting to meet this sweet girl.  I never in my wildest dreams could have imagined how much I would love her and how happy she would make my life.  She is the biggest blessing I have ever received and I am so thankful I get to be her Mommy.

Happy Easter

We had a really great Easter this year, it was so fun celebrating Eleanor's first Easter & our first time playing Easter Bunny.

Friday night we took Henry & Elle to see the Easter Bunny.  Henry was such a big boy, when it was their turn he sat right next to the bunny...no fear whatsoever.

After pictures Mary, Nick, Eric and I went to dinner with the babes.  It ended up being a really fun Friday night.

Sunday morning we woke up to Eleanor's goodies that the Easter Bunny left behind for her. :)

We went to Church and then off to Eric's parents house for our first Easter celebration of the day.  Eric's parents were in Louisville the weekend before and had bought Elle a miniature bat with her name engraved and a duck dynasty onesie (Eric is a fan of the show).

After lunch at the Hylton's we headed to my mom and dad's for dinner.  My parents had eggs throughout the living room and on their deck for Henry to hunt.  The little babe decided to keep his shades on for the Egg Hunt. :) 

After dinner the babes opened their Easter baskets from Grammy & PawPaw...they spoil these babies!!

Eventually, both of the babes crashed. 

Overall we had such a fun day!! The only thing missing was Will & Paige.
