First day at daycare

Here I am for the first time at daycare and mommy almost didnt cry...

1st ride

We went to the Italian Festival. I was safely tucked into the baby bjorn. But since it was so hot it was nice to have the breeze!!

1st Airplane ride

Boy was that fun for mom and dad!! We took the red eye and I think me and my si

s did GREAT. I cried and cried when mom took me from nana. But as you can see when we landed. Annaliles, Au' Au' (monkey) and I were FAST asleep. Thank you dad for flying out of Saturday and coming back to Chicago on Sunday!! You are the GREATEST!!

Kissing mom and napping with Anna

It was the first time I rolled over. It was to kiss my mommy. It made her and nana cry.

Anna and I fell asleep holding hands. I can

tell we are going to be great friends. The last picture is me waking up. I try to smile and laugh. It is my favorite time with just mommy and me :)

Lunch with my cousin

I was very lucky to meet my cousin. Isabella calls me Ellie. I think it is a cute nick name. With our names so close together Bella then Ella. It sets me apart. My mom laughs because she calls her cousin Melissa ME-ME. I actually sucked my thumb for the first time in Me-Me arms. Nice and comfortable :) (no you can't keep me but I'll come to visit oh and mommy says she hasn't printed out the pictures. But as soon as she does she will send them to you)

Just swinging around

Same swing that my big sis' used last time. Worked perfect for me!! I

was just chillin'.

Nana, Papa and Ella

First time I met my pappa.....Anna wouldn't let him hold me At first. But by the end of the 2 weeks, it was all good.

Sorry we kept you up!!

my trip to arizona

We had a great car ride to AZ. We left Thurs and got there Sunday. It was a great time with the girls.
