Easter Weekend at Nana and Poppa's!




On Saturday morning we headed to Crossville for the Easter weekend. It was the first time Elle had spent the night away from home. I was a little stressed, but she did great! Her Nana and Poppa have everything that she could possibly need at their house- it's like a home away from home (for all of us!) Elle had a big weekend spending time with family and friends!




Look what all the Easter Bunny brought me!


Miss Tessa even gave me my very own Puffalump!! (You children from the 80s/90s - remember these ?!?) They were awesome, but for some reason FP stopped making them! Thank you Miss Tessa!





Our Sweet Family!




Since Elle was too young to enjoy dying Easter eggs, I decided to make cupcakes for her... As do most of my brilliant projects, this ended up being a bigger deal than what I thought - but at least they tasted good!

Thank you Nana and Poppa for a great weekend!

Happy Easter!





We took Elle to meet the Easter Bunny a few weeks ago! She didn't quite know what to think! :) I think I was more scared than she was - that was one large bunny!

All smiles at 8 weeks!


At 8 weeks Elle is smiling (finally! I have been waiting for this part!) I cannot believe how much she has grown (and grown-up!) these past 4 weeks. She is so much more alert these days, and loves to study everything around her. Also, she can hold her head up most of the time and is working on rolling over. She is doing pretty well during night, too - she wakes up once at 4am to eat. At her 2 month MD appointment last week, she weighed a whopping 10 lbs 7 oz (now in the 42nd percentile for her weight, which is a big improvement from the 18th percentile when she was born!) She has really filled out - look at those cheeks and chin!




On our way to celebrate the upcoming arrival of cousin Emma! (Thank you Granny for making my beautiful dress and bonnet!)

All that work wears me out!
