Ella's 1

We were looking at turtles!

It's been awhile since she's been in the pool, she was a little unsure of it right away. I think she enjoyed it though!



She did not like her hat! It was super cute though.


She got this Backyardigans sofa from G&G Vondal, she loves it!






Sorry I didn't post last week, this pregnancy is starting to hit me full force. Although, I still have more good days than bad days. We were also busy planning Ella's birthday party and getting ready for our weekend away. She had a wonderful party with some little girls and some of our friends/neighbors. She had fun with her smash cake although she didn't dig into until she fully examined it and poked it for awhile. The party was Friday late afternoon and that night I realized Ella had a fever. We were thinking it was just her teeth and no big deal, gave her tylenol, and put her to bed early. In the morning she still had a fever, gave more tylenol, and was on our way to Cinncinatti for a Reds baseball game. The weather was gorgeous 78, sunny and breezy. Ella acted completely normal with Tylenol on board. We went to our hotel after the game so she could nap and than went out to eat and went to bed early cause we all had a long day. On Sunday- her birthday, we went swimming and had breakfast in the hotel. We got ready and left for the aquarium. She loved it! We got ice cream afterwards to celebrate her birthday and came home. We slept most the way home, it felt good. She finally broke her fever Sunday night so I was super happy but last night was rough. She just didn't sleep well so we are going to the Doctors today. Otherwise I think and hope she had a wonderful birthday. We all had fun! I can't believe she is 1 already.
