Lately...



( Elle loves to be read to....she also likes to read by herself too)

( Elle LOVES her daddy)
( Elle LOVES to organize our DVD collection...)

I am back blogging...I took a time out for awhile!

Today is Elle's 7 month birthday! I cannot believe she is 7 months old. It amazes me how fast she is learning and growing each day. I am just in love with her and so is Nick! She keeps things very entertaining around here.

Fun Elle facts:

**Elle is CRAWLING
** Elle can sit up by herself...and get to a sitting up position from her tummy and back
** likes to say " BaBa" and "DaDa"
** LOVES sweet potatoes,pears,squash,apples and bananas
** HATES peas and green beans
** Can wave BYE BYE
** When I sing " shake shake shake...shake shake shake..." she shakes her hands with me!

And last but not least....she is FULLY...100% BOTTLE FED!!!! My life is just wonderful now :)
Breastfeeding was amazing and I am so grateful I could do it for as long as I did...but it was time for Elle and myself to move on and become a little more independent!

I cannot say enough how much pure joy she brings into our home. We are absolutely smitten by Elle.

Nick is doing amazing in school....he is loving the law and understanding how it all works. He always comes home with a lot to say about his day and classes...and I LOVE hearing about it.

I am great too! Working on my weight is the main focus on my life. One day at a time is what I keep telling myself. I LOVE being a stay at home mommy...it is the best thing I have ever done in my whole life!
