Santa Pics & Hanging with Cousin Carter

The best Christmas gift EVER!!!!

Ellie & Carter made some pottery together. They did a great job!!

Ellie & Carter also had their pictures taken with Santa together. Ellie can 't keep her hands of Cousin Carter. " Mom why is he always sleeping?" - it is so nice of Ellie to worry about her cuz

Stay back Mr. Elf!!

I have been nice not naughty Santa.

Hmmm...what can I chew on next.

Is someone going to get me off this man's lap?????

Dear God, When is this going to be over.

Getting Ready for Christmas!

Helping Daddy put out the Christmas lights on a beautiful day!

"I think we could use some more lights, Daddy!"

Ellie's 1st trip to the Christmas tree farm.

We ran into our neighbors and they took this cheezy pic of us. It was their idea believe it or not!

Standing by lovebug's 1st Christmas tree.

Sleeping peacefully on the way home from picking out the perfect tree.

Thanksgiving & Sitting Up!!!

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We had soooooo much to be thankful for this year - a healthy beautiful baby girl, family, & friends!!! Our little turkey is starting to sit up on her own!!
Yummy my 1st taste of turkey

Thankful Family

A close up of Ellie with her cuz Carter. It was their first time meeting : )

Ellie was so happy to have her Daddy home for a few extra days over the holiday.

Sitting up on her own!!!! Don't go too far I might tip over..... Looks like it was a long day she is missing a boot.

Birthdays !!!

Ellie's cousin, Carter Montgomery had his birthday November 14th @ 10:34 pm. He is such a cutie & we are soooooo happy he is here!! Adam also celebrated a BIG birthday on the 19th, he is finally 30!!!! Ellie has been quite the social butterfly - she is now laughing & smiling @ people other than Mommy & Daddy. She has been hanging out with lots of different people & she has been friendly to them all : ) A new thing we have caught the lovebug doing is laughing at herself - it is quite funny!!!
Happy Birthday Daddy!

Lovebug sucking her thumb with Aunt Em

Every now & then she will get her thumb.

Fresh out of the bath

Bathing Cutie!!

A little video for you all to see how much Ellie is changing. This video is her after a long day of fighting naps!

5 Months!!!!

Little Miss Ellie Kate is 5 months! I know I say this every month but I can't believe she is already 5 months! Her personality is definitely coming out :) she must know what is going on at all times, she checks everyone & everything out, she loves to smile & laugh at her mommy & daddy, she has been making some new noises -a funny little sound that comes from the back of her throat, it sounds like a wild cat, she is grabbing everything in sight with both hands, she is getting really good at being on her tummy & making her way to things she wants, and most importantly she makes us laugh & thank God everyday : )

Happy Girl!!

Doesn't she look so old.....

Getting a workout in the Exersaucer. Do you like her concentration face? We do!! Check out her new hair coming in on the top of her head. She is becoming very bald in the back.

My 1st Halloween!

The cutest pumpkin I have ever seen!! Thanks for my pumpkin hat Grammie.

Watching the Georgia game with Daddy on Halloween.

Our Little Ladybug! Thanks for my sassy costume Grammie : ) We got a kick out of Ellie's hat because it looks like a Shriner hat.

We went over to our friends John & Melissa's house to celebrate Halloween with the kiddies.
