8 Months Old!


Ella is 8 months old already! I just don't know what life would be like without her!!!

I don't know her exact weight, but I'm guessing she is about 16 lbs. She's on the smaller side than most babies her age, but so was Emily. She is starting to really get an appetite and can hardly keep baby food stocked at home! She loves to nurse and has refused to drink from a bottle recently. That was not fun when mommy was away for the weekend. Daddy got very worried, but then gave her some apple juice and lots of food. I'm guessing she will have to go with us on our 10th year anniversary trip next month.
Ella loves playing with her toys, still loves the exersaucer and jumperoo. She rolls and rolls around the living room. She is starting to get up in the crawling position and rock. She will be crawling before we know it and I'm NOT ready. I just don't know where my little baby went. :( Although I miss the baby that would stay where you put her, I love seeing all the new things she is learning. She says "ma ma", "da da" and babbles many consonants. She's so much fun and loves to giggle!

Our Ella is 8 months old and what a darling little baby girl she is! We enjoyed our time with her and Emily this week. Both are just a joy to be with.

Ella is so sweet and always smiling. She delights in playing with toys and giggles when her big sister Emily plays with her. It is so much fun watching her grow and discover the world.

With love,
