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.

Easter ER

Here is our little sweetie on Easter, in the dress that Nana made for her.


Looking like an angel


She's not quiiiiiiiite walking yet...


Ella Rose & Connor

Baby Dress-up

Ella Rose likes to play dress-up in her daddy's hats...or maybe it's just her daddy who likes to put his hats on his little darling. :)

In my opinion, chubby baby rolls shouldn't be wasted by being covered up in clothes. So I've decided that this summer, ER is going to spend a lot of time in a diaper...because before I know it, she'll be a teenager. Mmmmm...baby eye candy! Love it!

Fashionable? Oh yeah!

Seriously, this girl makes all the pregnancy-puking and migraines worth it. All-day sickness? I'd take it for her again in a heartbeat.

She wanted to put the bathing suit on, so I put it on. A girl wants what she wants, and who am I to stand in the way? It's size 3-6 months, by the way. ;)

Man. She's cute.

Us

We finally got our kitchen chairs...and Ella Rose got a BIG ole box to play in. Daddy played too.


Ella Rose & I don't take many pictures together, so I took one of nothingness...but I guess Ella Rose thought that was a stupid idea.

Snow in Memphis. Who'da thought!

I can't believe it snowed 8 inches and I missed it!
Ella Rose and her daddy had fun though! ...err, it was fun until he sat her in it...

She did not like how it felt, apparently.

Had enough.

Half the chub, just as cute.

This baby just keeps getting cuter. She has slimmed down quiiiite a bit, but has maintained just enough chub to be dee-licious! She is pulling up and "cruising" all the time, so I know any day now I am going to come around the corner and there she'll be, toddling across the room. It's too soon. I'm not ready. I want her to stay lil bidy...even though I'll have another baby to take care of in just 5 short months.
Boo. I don't want Ella Rose to grow up, and I'm pretty sure her daddy shares that feeling.

Okay! I know. She really should be taking baths in the big girl tub by now, but she is just so cute (and easily accessible) in the kitchen sink. Bathing her in the regular tub is just like admitting that she's a big girl...and I just can't do it, so leave me alone.

Springtime in February

It felt grrrrreat outside on Saturday, so Daddy suggested that we spread out a blankie and play in the backyard. Ella Rose loved it! Not to mention the entertainment that her neighbor cousins provided. She thinks they are hilarious.

(I think) Brown is her color.

Ella Rose Loves Showing Her Teeth (obviously).

Gremlin Face + Toothy Grin



All these teeth she got when she was about 11 1/2 months old. She was a late bloomer. And they all came in in about 2 weeks. Good thing she's a great teether!
