Sick baby girl = No bueno!

A few weeks ago we had a sick little girl on our hands.  It was Elle's first cold (we thought she had one around 3 weeks old but now we are wondering if we were overreacting :).  I woke up Wednesday morning to lots a sniffles and coughs.  I took the day off work to nurse that little girl back to good health.  Elle slept on me alllllll day, I LOVED it!





By Thursday she still hadn't kicked her little cold so Eric got to enjoy a day at home with her.  By Thursday night she was feeling much better.




We hated seeing our little Elle Belle sick but I know we both really enjoyed having a day at home with her.

29th Birthday!

A few weekends ago we celebrated my 29th birthday, it was filled with some of my favorite activities...baby girl cuddles, shopping and time with my family.

Friday night after we picked up Elle we headed out for some shopping and dinner.  Eric and I were on the hunt for something to somewhat coordinate with the pink overload I had planned for Elle's 4 month pictures the following day.  Not so sure that I was successful but I bought several options. :)

Saturday we had Elle's pictures in the afternoon.  She was a really good girl and only started to get fussy towards the end...hungry girl = no more pictures!  I am so happy with how they turned out and I can't wait to see all the pictures from that day.
After pictures it was off to Mary & Nick's for some birthday celebrating.  There is nothing I love more than a fun night with my family.  They always go above and beyond...I am so lucky to have them!

B-day gifts from Elle


Sunday, my actual birthday, was spent out and about with Eric and Elle.  Eric was so amazing all day taking me shopping (and acting super interested in everything I was looking at :) & out to lunch.  I have such an amazing husband and I'm so lucky he's mine. :)  We ended the day by buying some new lights for our kitchen (my idea of a good time..I'm old...and boring!).  All in all it was a great weekend, one of my favorite birthdays I've had so far.  The fact that it was my first with Elle doesn't hurt. ;)
