24 weeks and counting

So much has been going on. This past beautiful weathered weekend we had Aunt Kelly and Uncle Ron's wedding. Ellia's first wedding that she was a flower girl in!!! She gave us a scare though because she woke up that morning with a fever of 101.5. However we gave her Tylenol and kept her head cool with a wash cloth. She did really well for not feeling good.
She really enjoyed watching everyone dance and the lights on the dance floor. All and all a beautiful day and the bride and groom never looked happier.

Ellia has almost been at daycare for a full month now. All the ladies say she is doing so well and has transitioned so quickly. Mommy is still adjusting to leaving her but work keeps me busy so the days go by fast. I really enjoy picking her up from daycare and listening to her talk in the back seat during our car ride home as if she is telling me all about her day.

She loves to be outside! We enjoy night time walks with her while the weather holds up. She also enjoys listening to people read to her. Daddy often reads her books and she will intently look at him then at the book and then at him.


This week I am trying to consistently give her cereal to keep her tummy full and keep me getting more and more sleep! She will go for her 6 month check up on May 12th so we will have many new updates. This weekend will be cousin Samantha's baptism. Always something fun going on with one of the families.
And great news!!! My dad is finally coming home! He is doing so well, eating on his own and getting around again. Praise God.. thanks to all your prayers.
