Baby, you can drive my car . . .

Nap Time Angel

Ellie turned 5 months old this week and she is now starting to take some"regular" naps. I mean regular because her normal before was maybe two 20 minute naps during the day. But lately she has been sleeping for close to an hour. Maybe it's because I've let her nap on her tummy . . . or

maybe it's because Ba-Pop is the master at getting her to sleep. He snuggles her up on his shoulder and walks around the house "shhhing" in counts of 3 . . . shh..
shhh...
shhhh...
shhhhhh...

Sunny Day with the Grammas

Laura (Drew's mum) came over yesterday for a visit. And brought Ellie her most recent knitted creation . . .

An adorable spring dress! And with her pattent-leather shoes from Auntie Paula she looks SO cute.
Ellie and gramma (maybe to be called Koko, African for gramma) hung out outside and Ellie played with her toes in the grass.
Don't you love her summer hat??!!!

Look mom, a tooth!!!

Ellie has a tooth!!! She has been especially fussy this last week and drooling more that I thought was possible so when I felt a sharp little spot on her lower gum yesterday, I was not surprised!!!
Our little girl is growing up too fast!!!

Introducing . . .

ELLIE'S FEET!!!!

Like I mentioned on the last posting . . . Ellie LOVES her feet. Today, as I was changing her (for the third time) she was holding them up and looking at me as if to show them to me and say "Look mum, I have feet!"

Greetings from the Easter Baby

Ellie's photoshoot today revealed what we already know . . .

She is the cutest little bunny in the world!

This one is definitely the photoshoot winner. Just perfect!

Do you think she knows she gets to hunt for eggs next year??

Uh-oh, my ears!

This little bunny has just dicovered she has TWO feet in the last few weeks. Every time we take her clothes off she reaches for her feet like she's just remembered she has this built-in playtoy!

I think she just realized there is supposed to be chocolate in the eggs!

Happy Easter from the Nobles!!!

Happy Spring!

Happy first day of spring from Ellie.

She had a pediatrician visit today. She weighs 13lbs 13oz!!
