Little giggles

The highlight of my week was last night. As I was feeding Eleanor she bit me. I said "Ouch! No biting!". She looked up at me and smiled. This is how the rest of the conversation went:
Me: "No Ellie, bad girl!"
Ellie: *smiles*
Me: "Ellie, no biting. That's bad!"
Ellie: "HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA" laughing hysterically.
Me: (trying to hold back a laugh) "No laughing... Bad!"
Ellie: "HEHEHEHEHEHEHE"

Then I couldn't help it any longer. We both got the giggles (me laughing at her laughing at me) and we both couldn't stop.

I just can't get enough of those little giggles!

Happy Friday everyone!

Labor Day Weekend

Another fun weekend for Ellie (and us) visiting the grandparents in Longview! We...

Went to Pizza King...






Played under PawPaw's table...




Tried to wake Daddy up from a serious nap...



Then as soon as we woke him up I got really tired...


Then we went out to eat at Fish City Grill...



On Sunday we headed out to Liberty City to see Ellie's great grandparents (technically great great Aunt and Uncle) Meme and Papaw and Ellie's other Meme (my Aunt Karen) and of course Ellie's Nona. We didn't get any pictures while we were there. :( We did get an "after" photo though.



Annnnnd Happy Labor Day to us, we ordered Ellie's big girl carseat!! After months of research, we went with the Britax Marathong G3. I'm so excited!


All in all a very productive weekend. Happy Labor Day y'all!

Please stay a baby

It's moments like these when I understand people wanting their babies to stay babies. There will come a day very soon when Ellie will not want to nap on Mommy's chest and it will break my heart. I'm soaking in every second I have with my little baby.

Andi's Bridal Shower

All I have to say is that I am EXHAUSTED after throwing a lovely bridal shower for my dear friend Andi.  Andi's wedding is "rustic chic" so we decided her shower would be the same way.  Here are some photos from the day!

It was really fun hosting a party at the new house and the flow was really great.  The only thing we need to work on is the air conditioning.  Having that many people in the house, plus an oven going, plus people going in and out continuously = a HOT house. 

She crawls!

Apparently Eleanor is motivated by food just like her Mommy! We've been working on crawling for over a month now and she's been so close for several weeks. Who knew that all I had to do was to offer her favorite treat (Baby Mum Mums) and she would crawl across the floor immediately? She is now triumphantly eating her snack and I am one proud mama.
