They'll be gone soon enough.

Is it so wrong for me to love her chubby thighs enough to put this picture on here??



I just can't help it...

Tu tus and such...

When I fiiiiiiiinally got around to switching Ella Rose's closet to her new room today, I found her tu tu...and it made me really happy that she wanted to wear it...and then didn't want to immediately take it off. She already had the partial pig tails in her hair - so add that to the tu tu and I was reminded just why I've always wanted a little girl.







She just looks like trouble with hair-do, right??

Smoker's Laugh...

Our baby has a smoker's laugh?? Maybe she's keeping a secret from us...

Playing Outside

A few recent pics of our babe...

(Loooooove me some chubby legs!)

Nothing sweeter!

This was right before she decided to take a big ole bite.

Yuck! Get it offffffff!

Toddling...finally :)

Ella Rose fiiiiiiiinally started walking at 16 1/2 months. A little late, but honestly, I didn't really want her to walk. I guess as a part of normal, healthy development it's a good thing. I love to watch her walk - or "toddle" rather. It is so cute.
The video below makes her look quite disobedient - she doesn't come to me after I repeatedly ask her to - but she isn't...most of the time, that is. ;) ...And she's still loving her purses.
