Delicious Remote

I'm sure Aunt Deanna would call this another one of her "Appalachian baby" pictures. Gotta love the diaper only look : )

Help me!

Hee hee! I couldn't resist taking these. When I walked in her room to check on her during her nap her little arm was hanging out the side...

More bath time!

I can't help it! She's SO stinkin' cute in the tub!

Rolling, Rolling

Naked Ella rolling all over the counter post-bath.

Lunch with the Girls

Ella and I met Aunt Deanna and Carol out for lunch in Houston before heading back to Austin. She really wanted a margarita, but I had to put my foot down... Your time will come soon enough, Grasshopper.

Rock Band Ella

She's taking up the keyboard and trying to play with her feet already.

I think we're in for it.... What a rebel!

Ella and August

Ella and Gus had a grand time hanging out together! They shared and talked and were fascinated by eachother. Too cute!

Helping with Cousin Ethan

Ella and I went and stayed in Houston for about a week to help out Aunt Jennifer and Uncle David with cousin Ethan. Ella really liked to stare at and touch Ethan.

Visiting Family

Visiting San Antonio and hanging with cousin Parker

Sweet!

It was such a pretty day we had to hang out on the front porch for a bit. Isn't she the sweetest with her hat and little tennis shoes on??

6 Months Old!

Aunt Jenifer

Aunt Jenifer stopped by to say hi before Ella went to sleep with Gram and Pop babysitting so I could go out for some drinkie poo's with the gals : )

Ella's Great Aunts

We spent some time with 2 of my favorite people, Aunt Mary and Aunt Leigh. We had fun attempting to make Ella smile and look at the camera at the same time... A very tall order and humorous as well!

Celebrating Pop's Birthday!

Miss Ella and I went to Houston to celebrate Pop's birthday and hang out with the family. We had fun with cousins and friends and ate a whole bunch - as usual!

Lunch with Friends

We met up with Tiffany, Aidan, Brandy and Melissa at Phil's Icehouse down the street for lunch. It was a great summer day!

Playing with Alexa and Dena

Miss Ella stayed with Dena and Alexa today while I went to a conference. She had a blast in the pool! She looks too cool in her shades and sun hat.

My Aunt Michelle

Parker came to stay with Ella and I while Aunt Michelle and Uncle Spencer celebrated their anniversary Saturday night. We hung out with them for a bit before they left to go back to San Antonio on Sunday. Ella thought Aunt Michelle's watch looked mighty tasty...

First Swimming Lesson

Here is Ella and her Papa at her very first swimming lesson at Emler Swim School. She absolutely loved the water and we have been having fun every week in the pool!
