Ellia turns 2!!

I'll never forget the day I became an Aunt! Preston and I had just returned to the states from being on our honeymoon. I turned on my phone to find a text from my brother letting us know Ellia Lynn had arrived into this world. Today Ellia turned 2!!! She is a go getter and stays busy teaching Isabella and Addisyn how things get done around Noni and PaPa house. It is such a joy to me to be close to her and see her ever changing ways. I look forward to the day I get to be there when she needs advice about her future,boys, and/or just to make her laugh...(or have her there to make me laugh, which she is incredible at doing.) Happy Birthday Ellia!!! We hope you have a blessed one. We LOVE YOU!!! (These pics are from 2 yrs. ago)

Bringing in the New Years

Preston's family was in town and we dressed his sister, Carina, and Isabella up in the same outfits and took some pictures. And as always, Isabella was a "ham" for the camera.

She's Crawling!!

It's official! She took off crawling yesterday! Christmas of all days! It was a great present for us.

More of Christmas

White Christmas 2009

Her 1st Christmas ended up being a white one. She loved looking at the snow but did not enjoy that much sitting in the snow. She was very unsure of what to think. I'm sure next year she will be very sure of what to do with it. I hope all of you had a very Merry Christmas!

7 MONTHS

Every month is amazes us how another month has flown by. She is pulling up to things, walking while holding on to something and perfecting her crawling. Her vocabulary is rapidly expanding. With Christmas right around the corner, we are excited to see what 2010 has in store for us.

Target Christmas Session

Like I said... one of my friends sister-in-law is the Manager of the new Target. She needed some guinea pigs to come in and do a photo session so that she could get some pics for her Christmas photo album. As always, Isabella loved the camera and the photographers had a blast. ENJOY!!!
