It was once again...a normal week...work and taking care of a baby...day in and day out! Monday - I went to work and Josh picked Ella up...he decided he was going to keep her home with him on Tuesday as we had to share a car...the Jetta was due for a state inspection....so at 7:30am we all left the house to bring the Jetta to the dealership and Josh then brought me to work....at 6pm he picked me up and we started home as the Jetta wasn't done (once again had to replace the water pump)...and then Josh realized that he needed things out of it for work on Wednesday morning...so we had to go all the way home...get the spare keys...turn around and go all the way back to the dealership. Then once we got there...we couldn't find his car...it was left up on the lift...so thankfully there was someone there who was able to get the car down...Josh got his things and home we went....so this also meant that we had to share a car on Wednesday! So Wednesday morning...we all left the house at 6am :) Brought Josh to work...and Ella and I came home...she played for a bit before taking an early morning nap...she ended up sleeping about 8:30-10:30....up for a while...and then went back down for a good afternoon nap as well...after about an hour and a half I woke her up as I wanted her to sleep at night! So at 6:30pm we left the house to go get Josh from work...and then went back out to the dealership to pick up the Jetta. Thursday was work for both of us...an exciting life we lead :)

Ella is really getting to moving around...still doesn't "crawl"...but scoots all over....she's getting really good at laying down and getting into a sitting position...just about every morning she is now sitting up in crib trying to stand up. And of course when I lay her down for a nap...I go to check on her a few minutes later and there she is sitting up playing instead of sleeping :) I found her like this the other night....

Silly girl! I laid her down to go to sleep...and she moved herself into a sitting position apparently...and then when she got tired...she just flopped over and fell asleep...doesn't look comfortable to me! So I did straighten her out so she wasn't folded in half :)

She is liking her "puffs" a lot now...and does well eating them. The doctor had recommended putting solids into a mesh bag and letting her eat from that...we actually had gotten one at one of our baby showers...so I bought bananas today...and I cut one up and stuck a few pieces into that bag for her to try.....

Maybe not a fan??

We'll keep trying! :)
