Celebrating 2 Months, and our first road trip!

Ellasyn is two months old!! She has changed so much over the last month. She is really rounding out, and often receives the compliments,"Well, isn't she healthy!" or,"She sure is well fed!" I just say thank you. She is healthy and well fed, and I am so greatful! She had a great check up and was so brave when she got her two shots. I was relieved to see that of the five immunizations that she had to get, three of them were in one shot and one of them was a syrup that she had to drink.

We took Ellasyn on her first road trip this weekend. We went to see Marmee and Papa in College Station. She slept the whole way there and the whole way back. It was a great trip. My mom, Ellasyn and I spent Saturday at a scrapbook workshop where I attempted to catch up in Ellasyn's baby book. Ellasyn had a great time hanging out with Daddy and Papa, she is really learning how to turn on the charm.
Here are some pictures...

Grama's Birthday

Sunday is my Grama, Ella's, birthday! (Ellasyn is named after her)

Happy Birthday, Grama!!

You are an amazing woman. You are an awesome example of a strong Christian woman and you will always be an inspiration to me!

Ellasyn was so sad when I told her that we would not be able to celebrate with you this year. We love you bunches and miss you a lot, too! We are sending you lots of love and happy birthday wishes come true.







Love, Ethan, Courtney and Ellasyn Hannah

Growing like a weed...

Ellasyn is growing so fast! She loves to smile. She is so close to laughing out loud, I can hardly stand it. She has a blast playing on her activity mat and has really begun paying attention to the hanging toys. She has started making lots of baby talk, sometimes "cooing". Here are some more pictures of our 1 month old...

Some new bows that I made with the Bowdabra! You should get one... Tummy time can be so frusterating!
Meeting "Aunt" Lauren for the first time... all smiles! We love bathtime! An Aggie girl... did she really have a choice? Someone got these for Ethan when he was a baby (as a joke) because his dad was a Longhorn fan. Foreshadow much? A smile for Grandpa A visit from Marmie and Papa. Snuggling with Papa

I hope you enjoyed looking at the pictures as much as I have enjoyed making them!
We love you,
The McDaniels
