All Grown Up

Last Tuesday Ella turned 1 month. We went to the post office to get her passport and then Brad took us out for lunch. They had an indoor waterfall which kept her quiet the whole time.

On Saturday, Claire and Molly came to visit and help out. Ella had lunch with the girls when we met Claire's friend from high school for lunch on Monday.

After lunch we went to the grocery store and mom forgot to bring the pacifier, so we found the baby aisle and opened a package. I thought we should probably sterilize it so I decided to suck on it a little before giving it to her. It was a little small for my mouth. She was happy the rest of the time. After shopping we were ready to take her to her first brewery (Laughing Dog).

On Tuesday she helped us get second place at trivia night at Mick Duff's.

She smiled at both Brad and I the day before she turned 1 month and she's been doing it more and more (it's proportional to her amount of crying, I think she's designed that way so we don't get too frustrated). Molly and Claire are experts at getting her to smile.

  1. wow! Our Ella is beautiful...it's been way too long since we've seen photos. If she liked the waterfall noise, buy a alarm clock at BB&B that has waterfall noise and others on it. Darton sleeps with it everynight. If you think she is fussy more than normal look into chamomille, fennel, and catnip. They are all used for gas, digstions, colic. It's in the Simply natural Baby Food bk you got me that I LOVE!
