Isaac...Fluffin' Up

Isaac looks JUST like his poppa.


His face is definitely filling out. Make a momma proud. Keep the fluff a comin'.


When this boy sleeps, he sleeps...

Ever since Isaac arrived on the scene, Ella Rose has wanted to be swaddled like her little brother. What Cutie Pie. Love that kid.

Ella Rose + Isaac

Maybe it's too soon to call it, but so far Ella Rose has treated Isaac just like part of the family. She hasn't hit or punched or kicked or bitten him one time...and if it's gonna happen, it already would have, right?? She has, however, hugged and kissed and patted and rubbed and loved on him a-plenty. I'm hoping that God has just chosen to bless us with loving children...or at the very least, that Ella Rose is just young enough that she doesn't know the difference - and she has a "everyone's welcome" type of attitude. It could happen.


"Now, why is he in my lap again?"


Precious.


She is fascinated with all his little baby parts.



ER's favorite thing to do to ev-er-y-bod-y these days. "Ponk ponk."



Just a bonus shot... could it get any cuter??!

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.

She doesn't need name brands.

Ella Rose has recently taken an interest in carrying a purse. It's cool if I let my kid use an old Kroger bag with a poopy diaper tied up in it for a purse, right?

I Heart Ella Rose

A couple of cute pictures of Ella Rose...pretty much just an opportunity to showcase her chubby ankles.




She is Miss Personality. :)

We don't have to discipline our baby...she disciplines herself.
