February 22nd (Our 2nd Day of the Blizzard!)

Today we all ventured out to get Daddy's check, stop at the bank and look around at Target. We needed to get out since Ella has been crying almost all day and night. I feel bad for her but when we can distract her with shopping she usually is a lot happier. Which she did do better at the store but still was a little upset. She hasn't been napping well or sleeping well at night.
Later on for dinner I made shrimp spicy marinara pasta, baked parmesan asparagus and garlic toast...it was so yummy. I got the marianar recipe from pinterest....oh I love you pinterest!!

February 21st (BLIZZARD TIME!!)

 WOW WOW WOW!!!
Ella watching us shovel the drive...well for about 10 mins!! lol
 Adelyn loves playing out in the snow!!

 Go Daddy!!
Today it started to snow and snow and snow and snow!!! I can't believe how much snow we got....11 inches!! It was super crazy but really pretty. Luckily we have four wheel drive in two of our three vehicles!! The girls loved watching the snow fall. It wasn't very much fun digging out the driveway but at least it was a work out. Ella started off the morning very whinny and had a fever in the afternoon. But I think it is her teeth...she has the top four all trying to come through at the same time. My poor baby, but hopefully it will happen soon so she can start feeling better and sleeping better.

February 20th (Sneaky Sneaky!!)


 Ella sneaked into Adelyn's room today and had lots of fun playing with her toys by herself.



Today we had a fun day at home playing and cleaning. Then we headed up to the pool to swim before the big snowstorm is suppose to hit. We went swimming rented 3 movies and got Kentucky fried chicken for dinner. Then Daddy got home late to eat with us. Fun night and we are ready for the snow!!

February 19th (New Crafting)

I have been starting my own business some what. I started making flip flops, but I am trying to find more since they aren't yet everywhere for very cheap. I also am making bows and have them in a store at the Great Mall. Hopefully this takes off at least a little while.

February 18th (The Girls!!)

 Adelyn's 1st braid...by mommy!

 Peek-a-boo!
 Love you Ella!
Today the girls were so cute playing with one another in the kitchen. Adelyn would hide and Ella would just laugh and laugh at her. Adelyn put Ella's crown on her for her...because she was the birthday princess. I love their sisterly bond..so sweet!

Today was a super fun filled day with our little "one" year old! Ella sure is a different one year old than Adelyn was. Ella is super relaxed, laid back, only crawls, is happy unless really tired, nurses all of the time, loves her BIG sister, eats food, no baby food, doesn't talk yet, laughs when she toots, loves to take baths, loves Oliver the kitty and is very loved by her Mommy, Daddy, Sissy, family and friends!!! I love you more than words Ella!! Happy 1st Birthday!
