I know, I know... Terrible blogger...


Wow - Didn't realize it has been 2 weeks since my last post. I have definitely done my fair share of blog stalking and gotten upset others haven't updated, but just didn't feel like updating my own blog! The last 2 weeks have been a blur. I couldn't even remember what we did this past weekend when a friend asked today, and that's bad b/c it was our anniversary!

We've been going 90 to nothing with work, so each night we crash once Ellie goes to bed (which is around 7:30 every night). I am on the computer all day right now gearing up for my busy season, so the last thing I want to do is get back on at night.

So, let's catch up... Pictures and videos of Ellie walking will come tomorrow...

BIG NEWS... No, I am not pregnant! This wonderful man, my Daddy, is cancer free! He had a great report today from the doctor. So no more chemo! God is so good.

I am D-O-N-E with nursing and pumping! Hallelujah! I made the decision last weekend to stop before I am on the road. It was a painful week. I didn't know it hurt so bad to quit! Wow... Good luck if you are reading this and considering stopping! She is still on BM mixed with formula due to a great storage!

Mom and I completed a couple more sewing projects. I am going to TRY to applique one, so I will post pictures soon! Love Love Love the dress we (I mean, she) made!

We celebrated our 6 year anniversary on Saturday! We had a babysitter from Ellie's daycare that we LOVE come over Sunday night so we could enjoy a peaceful dinner. We went to Veni Vidi Vici and it was DELICIOUS! If you live in/around the Atlanta area, definitely try it out! Yummy! We then splurged and enjoyed coffee and dessert down the road. This year we decided (or I did) that we should do something for the house as our gift. We bought a new storm door for the front door. I have been asking for 2 years for one, so I thought if I asked as an anniversary gift he couldn't say no! No pictures yet b/c it had to be special ordered.

Ellie Mae is walking behind her push toys these days. She started this week, and her teacher said she's been doing it at school too. She stands for a few seconds without holding onto anything, and is constantly pulling up and walking down anything she can get a hold of. It won't be long until she is walking all over the place.

She also started saying Ma Ma and Na Na. We are now using the words Da Da, Ba Ba, Va Va, Ma Ma, and Na Na. We are also dog sitting this week, and Ellie cannot get enough of Peter (friend's dog). She loves him and thinks he is hilarious.

She is eating some "real" people food, but mostly enjoys the fruits and veggies. She is drinking water out of a sippy cup too! She is growing up so fast. I can't believe we'll be celebrating her first year in 2 months!M
