Sunday Sessions: St. Patrick's Day

Ellie, would you like to make some music with dad?

Lets move the boppy out of the way, I'm making serious beats.

Sweet Little Nothings: 9 Months

Dear Elliott~
    We had your check up today and your stats are in! 20.2 lbs (80%), 92% for that big gold brain of yours and 56% in height. Personality is off the charts.  3/4 of the way through your first year and really not that many bumps in the road (even though you literally just threw up in your bed when I was writing this). I could just pinch you and hug you forever. I feel like I have known you my whole life and yet its only been a few awesome months. I am so lucky to be your mother and I hope your say the same about me (though probably not, if you happen to be reading this in your teenage years).

You are crawling up a storm. Though sometimes you do this weird cock-a-leg crawl. You think you are going so much faster by doing this. You just look weird.

Nicknames: Ellie, Elle, Bug, Crazy Lady

Pulling up on anything and everything. Upside: You are so proud of yourself and jibber-jabber til the cows come home. Downside: You cant figure out how to sit down. So you either stand there til someone comes and gets you or there is some whimpering involved.

Your wave is kinda a heil Hitler kinda wave. Cute Hitler.

I kinda would do about anything to have a better exposure with these next group of pictures. Though, I am just glad I captured the identical Sloans doing their thing.

Favorite Foods: Apple Spinach for breakfast and Sweet Potato & Turkey for dinner

Favorite Past Time: Taking off socks and chewing on shoes

We have started getting a few bumps and bruises. But letting you explore is so magical to watch.

Wordless Wednesday: No More Pink Tub

OK. A few words on this wordless post. I am sad, embarrassed, happy to say that Ellie is totally outgrown her baby tub. It was far over due, I know. I was holding her back. I was afraid she would slip and slide, bump her head, drown...Well, anything bad, you name it, I thought it. She actually did so much better than all that imagery thought up in my crazy mind. In the pink baby tub, she was standing up so much and trying to climb out that in the end; it was actually more dangerous than just letting her roam in the big tub. 

Sunday Sessions

Notes about this Lazy Sunday...

Dont mind her tooth brush in the pictures, this girl has been carrying around with her ALL day. There was no way I could have taken it from her extremely strong baby hands. At least she has good hygiene?

Today is the first day that she followed me into the bathroom. And so it starts, the mom saying of peeing alone is a luxury.

All three if us have been under the weather. So I busted out Netflix for kids for the first time. We watched maybe 10 minutes of The Lorax and then passed out. Ellie can now handle her Tylenol with out me seeing a glimpse of The Exorcist in her, and for that, it was a grand Sunday.
