now that's love..



So colic and all, Cayden is still such a sweetie with Ella. He takes every opportunity, when she is in a good mood, to hold her. When she is fussy and crying, he shuffles to help find whatever it is she needs to pacify her. She looks around and tries to find him any time she hears his voice..



the pic below was taken at Jays grannies house. The day after we got out of the hospital with her, our air conditioning went on the fritz and they were gracious enough to let us stay with them for a few days until the guy was able to fix ours.. Granny naturally took advantage and got tons of snuggle time!


my absolute favorite time of night has to be bath time. If I could keep her in the bath tub the entire time she was colicky, I would.. I am pretty sure it would be frowned upon though... she can be screaming a bloody fit and the minute her little booty touches the water this is her face until we take her out.. she will scoot all the way down until she is almost completely covered and when I pull her up a little to keep the water out of her ears, she will fuss and scoot back down.. its pretty funny..

2 weeks old..

Ella is 2 weeks old today. She is absolutely wonderful.. she is a little more "high maintenance" than Cayden was as a newborn, but its a rough life to be a diva :) we are tired and frustrated at times, but we would not change anything for the world.. I love the way she looks around with her eyes wide open just taking everything in.. I also love it when she sleeps, not only does mom get to cat nap, she is just too darn cute for words.. Mandi took pics of her last week and did a great job, be sure to check them out..


a family affair.. :)
