Greys Spring Concert






Grey had his Spring Concert at LSS pre-school. This will be his last concert there. The kids did such a good job. The theme was Easter and Greys class sang a song called "Yes Lord". Grey did really well and we were so proud of him!! He made me laugh though, because we dressed him in a white shirt, tie, and sweater vest. At home, he was so concerned that no one would see his tie. We convinced him that people could see it and he looked nice. But, when I got there, and he walked out on the stage, he had pulled his tie out again for everyone to see!! He sure is proud of that tie! Here is a little clip oh his class. Enjoy!

Ella!

Ella is 4 months!

Ella had her 4 month check up and all is well. Here are her stats:
Weight: 12.3 (10 - 25 %)
Length 24.5 inches (50 - 75%)
Head: 16 1/8 (25 - 50%)

She is doing great. She can roll over both ways. Is full of grins and giggles. She is very easy going and laid back. She doesn't fuss much. We are trying rice cereal. Last night was the first try and she seemed to really love it, but couldn't quite figure out how to eat it. She get all grinney-mcgrinner when I'd put the spoon to her mouth, but then she'd be grinning so much, the cereal would just roll right out of her mouth! Too cute!

Wii got a Wii!!!

For Valentines this year we told Grey he would have a special surprise in the morning. So the night before, Billy and I went and got a Wii, then set it all up to be ready to play the next morning. We wrapped the box up so Grey would have something to open, but set it up on the TV and charged the remotes. We were so excited about our stealth planning! So, the next morning, we reminded Grey he had a special surprise. Billy got Ella and was changing her and I came into the living room to light the fire place. Grey barely walked into the living room (where the present was wrapped on the coffee table. Impossible to miss) and Grey started saying "we got a wii, we got a wii!". He was so excited, but he hadn't even opened the present yet, so we kept saying, what do you mean. He was pointing at the tv. Behind the TV, I had put the remote charger. It was almost impossible to see. But, Grey knew what he was looking at and was so excited. He told us "We have blue camotes (remotes). Those are Wii camotes!". So we got him to open the present, but it was so funny! We've been playing games ever since!


Little Miss Priss did not miss out. She got a cool crib toy that shoots starts on the ceiling and plays a variety of music. She was happy to have her gift too!





"We have wii camotes!"

Ella @ 3 months
Ella @ 2 months

Ella @ 1 month



Ella at 3 months:

Ella is growing so fast! She is sleeping around 8 hrs a night and goes to bed about 10 and wakes about 6. She is eating 6 oz and is completely on formula. She is so full of grins and giggles! She loves playing on her activity mat. She is so close to rolling over! She gets up on one side and kicks and kicks and gets so mad...her little legs go crazy and she tries so hard. I can't help but laugh with her (not at her)! She really loves her big brother and lights up when she seems him. He can get a bit crazy and that kinda scares her, but mostly she just loves him. She is finally in her 0 to 3 months clothes. I'm kinda sad seeing her cute newborn outfits that she can't wear any longer. She doesn't nap much, but will take a quick nap in the morning, a longer nap in the afternoon, and then just a short cat nap in the evening. She is really easy (knock on wood) and we are so blessed to have her in our family!
