My Little Ella

My little Ella is getting way too big! Seriously, where has my newborn gone? She is still the sweetest thing ever and I love her so much. She has been a little sick the last few days. I have never heard a baby with such a bad cold. She has kind of lost her voice and when she tries to cry nothing comes out. It is the saddest thing ever! After giving her a bath today I decided she looked too cute and needed her picture taken. Here are a few of what I got.

As you can see, even though she is sick she is still the happiest thing ever!

Random Pictures from February

Okay, I know I have posted a million things today. Probably more than I have blogged in my entire life. this is it for now though...I am pretty proud of myself for getting caught up. Sorry for the picture overload. hopefully I can keep caught up now!

We got Janey a new bed and she is now in Russell's room. We made her toddler bed back into a crib for Ella in her old room. Ella got sick last night and so she is still sleeping in our room, and tonight Russell and Janey would not stop talking so I made Janey sleep in the crib in her room. Kind of funny that she is back in a crib! :) Hopefully the sharing a room thing will work out. Any suggestions, or do we just have to give it time to stop being so exciting?

I don't even know...he is just cute!

Ella is getting too big!

Playing in the jumperoo for the first time. She loves it!

Happy Valentines day!

Russell and Janey were being so goofy this day!

Valentine Breakfast. We made heart pancakes.

Janey has gotten really good at drawing...just check out that awesome chalk lady! It's better than I could do:)

I love moments like this!

Ella and her first taste of food. She did pretty good. Normally I hate the whole baby food phase but I actually am kind of enjoying it this time (for now anyways).

Story time before bed.

Russell loves holding Ella.

Janey in quiet time. She has recently discovered her love of coloring. I love it!

I have one more free thing to tell you about. The Museum of Glass is free the third Thursday of every month and this past Thursday we finally made it there! It wasn't as cool as I thought it would be, but it was still fun and well worth it (after all, it was free:).

The glass on the water was beautiful!

Making hats.

Wearing there cone head hats.

We didn't take too many pictures, this was all we got. Janey's favorite part was watching the students do glass blowing. I think she really just like sitting in the fun chairs!

Children's museum

Ella with Oma.
We played poker with Oma and Opa and Oma kicked our trash!

We did a lot of fun free things while Oma and Opa were here. Friday we went to the Children's Museum in Tacoma. It is free the first Friday of every month. It was pretty small but really fun!

Wasting Opas money :)

Opa had to build something.

They had this cool projector room and Russell absolutely loved it!

Getting crafty with Oma.

Oma taught Janey some ballet moves!

Reading stories...Oma is really good at this!

Playing at the store.

Oma bought Russell a kaleidoscope and he sure enjoyed it!

After the Children's museum we went and ate at the Rainforest Cafe. The kids were really into it this time!

Russell enjoying all there is to look at!

Museum of Flight

This has nothing to do with the museum of flight but us enjoying a sunny (but cold) day at the park with friends!

Russell wanted a little bed made on the couch so he could read books with George.

The first Thursday of every month is free to go to the museum of flight (after 5:00). We have been trying to go more often because the kids LOVE it. We decided to take Oma and Opa with us knowing how much Kevin's dad would love it too!

Playing in the kid zone

They were both kind of freaked out by spiderman.

It was fun being with Oma and Opa!
