Fast Week...

The days just go by so fast lately! Monday was a good day...Josh slept (he got home at 6am)...Ella went to the sitters, and I went to work. What has been even better this week is that most schools are on spring break...which means a light morning commute...which I love...I do not like traffic! I came home Monday night and Josh had picked Ella up and she was just finishing her bedtime bottle when I walked in. I took her from Josh and finished getting her ready for bed. She has started yet another thing (it's something new every week!) I got her all ready for bed, zipped her up in her sleep sack and picked her up to hold her to do bedtime prayers and she laid her head down on my shoulder and put her arm around my neck and snuggled in really close and just stayed there...I stood there holding her for a few minutes - soaking it up...then I walked into the living room still holding her...and Josh said, "why haven't you put her down yet?" My reply, "I just don't want to put her down - I am enjoying every second of this." So that is her new thing now...every night since Monday night she puts her head down on my shoulder and snuggles right in before bed. It's probably a good thing we don't have a recliner...or else I would be sleeping in it every night holding her all snuggled up :)

Tuesday was just a repeat of Monday.

Wednesday I was off and Josh didn't work Tuesday night - so he didn't sleep all day. We met my Mom and Dad for lunch at Red Lobster - a belated birthday lunch for Josh and our Easter lunch since we didn't do anything for Easter. It was yummy as always...and Ella was very well behaved! After lunch I wanted to run to TJ Maxx - one of my favorites! I saw a dress in there on Saturday...but I had Ella with me so I didn't try it on...but I just kept thinking about it...so I wanted to see if it was still there...it was! So I tried it on and I liked it...so I got it! For the rest of the afternoon - Josh got ready for work and Ella and I had some play time...she was sacked out by 6:30!

A few of Ella's adventures this week...well she got her first bruise on her face...she took two good face plants on Monday morning :( I was getting ready for work and Ella was playing on the floor...next thing I know...I hear a thump followed by a cry and a very red cheek which quickly started to turn purple/blue! Here she is doing "tricks"....

She refuses to sit and play...no instead she wants to stand! And next thing you know...she's doing flips over the table...well thankfully that only has happened once! (about 15 minutes after the face plant!)

Here she is being told "No"...(and she's finding it amusing...)

She's not allowed by the TV/Cords, etc...but she sneaked over. There is that one little cord that dangles down...it looked too enticing...(that cord no longer dangles down!)

Josh is off this weekend and it's supposed to be nice...so hopefully we will get out and be able to do something fun!
