3 1/2 months!
Dear Ella Bella,
Time is flying by. You are getting so big! According to the scale this morning, you are weighing in at a whopping 15.6 lbs. and you seem to be getting longer and longer everytime we look at you. You are still an awesome little sleeper. You sleep through the night and have been for some time. You go to bed around 6:30 each evening and wake up around 7 the next morning. Because you sleep so well, you are so happy and pleasant when we come up to your room and pick you up. We bring you downstairs and into bed with us, still in your jammies and then you get fed. Your smiles are amazing and when there is a giggle it makes my heart melt. Making you laugh has become the most important part of my day. In the last few days, I have found a giggle spot on you. It is a sure fire way to get a belly laugh out of you. You also love to fly around above my head and then put down with a kiss. You are amazingly sweet!
This Thanksgiving holiday was spent at your Grandma Char's and the whole family was there. Aunt Neen sent you a very cool hat so that your head would stay warm. You are very cute in it!
Christmas is right around the corner and you will soon be 4 months old. Today, we trimmed the tree and you helped mommy untangle the lights.
Here is the tree... we still need a star to top it off.
We love having you in our lives and not sure what life was like without you. It seems quite boring looking back.
Love, Mama
(and Daddy!)

Making a difference...
Noah and I, along with Ella, walked up to Wolf Trap Elementary to vote this morning...
Ella slept while we waited in line (almost an hour in line!!)
The good baby that she is only woke up when we were next in line to cast our ballots. No squawking!
We voted!!
Then we took the long way home over the river and through the woods. (I took 7 pictures of Noah and this is the only one where he was even remotely looking at the camera--so uncooperative!!)
