Our Weekend

On Friday, we had Alex stay late so we could go to happy hour...two margaritas later, I was a happy girl!

Saturday we went to Lindley and Steve's for dinner.  Lindley brought out Logan's playmat for Ella, so of course Logan became very re-interested in it!  We had two cuties on a playmat...

Logan was very into Ella and all things to do with Ella, and she was so sweet giving Ella hugs and patting her on her head!

Even though Gary and I feel like we have to rush, rush, eat and run, we still always have a great time getting together with them...and eating the yummy chicken kabobs and corn bread they made!  I brought over my mini white cupcakes with fresh strawberry glaze...

On Sunday we went to Jen & Kylen's so that Paige could open her birthday gift from Ella & Olivia since we'll be in Hawaii for Paigey's first birthday party (we're so sad!).  Paige has the most beautiful long eyelashes and an adorable full head of hair...

Even though we were there to give Paigey a gift, they surprised us with a gift for Ella for her baptism...Ella thought the outfit was really cute- see her expression?!

Paige was very interested in touching Ella, and she pointed out her nose for us. :)  She even kind of said "Ella"!!

E & O...Shopping Again

Today we met up at the mall with J and Olivia (please ignore the fact that I am a slob with no make up, sweats and a hat, and J looks all cute and put together).  Ella is finally starting to be interested in Olivia...we can't wait for them to actually play together! 

I think our days of mid-afternoon outings may be numbered.  Ella gets very fussy after being awake longer than 2 hours, and she will no longer sleep in her pram, and even though she'll sleep in the car, the second I open the door, she's awake.  I can't wait until we are down to just a morning and late afternoon nap!  Or better yet, just a late afternoon nap. :)

16 Weeks

Ella is 16 weeks today!  Only a little over a week until she is 4 months old.  Craziness.

Best Friends Shopping

Today Ella and I met Olivia and JB at a shopping center in Cerritos (it's half way between our houses).  We had lunch, shopped and bought the girls way too many things, as usual.  It was so fun getting together!  Olivia was so cute looking and smiling at Ella...Ella isn't as interactive with Olivia yet, but we know she loves her!
