Busy Busy....

WOW! Life has been crazy for the 3 of us! We went to Michigan this past weekend. We had a really good time. Ellie did great with the trip too. She got to meet all her family in Michigan it was great. We had an awesome time with everyone! Thank you!!!! I have pictures posted below from the trip and her ears piercing! Nanny went with us when she got her ears pierced! Ellie's been spending alot of time with MawMaw and PawPaw Lewis while I work on the house. I have got alot of stuff moved and I am working on it everyday. Construction stuff will start in the middle of June. Life just seems crazy right now. John's doing really well at work so he's staying busy with that. I have more pictures to post later on from our trip.

2 Month Picture

Mommy took Ellie to Sears today for her 2 Month pictures. She did such a good job. She thinks she may be a model! She loves to pose! I ordered the top left picture for our portrait package. They had the collages on special so I got this one today. She is growing up way to fast.

Ellie's 2 Months!

I can't believe our baby girl was 2 months old 4 days ago! She's growing up soooo fast! We went to the doctor today and Ellie weighed 11lb. 4oz. and was 24in. long! She is in the 60th percentile in weight and head circumference and is in the 90th percentile still for her length. Dr. Nadiene says Ellie is going to be tall and she's perfect. Her tear ducts opened so we are very thankful for that! She also had her shots today. Mommy cried when Ellie had her shots. Ellie cried too like we had never heard her cry before. We have given her tylenol and she's slept most of the day. We will be going to Michigan this weekend Ellie will get to meet Papa & Nonnie DiCarlo, Great Auntie Tina, her cousins Anna, Matt, Michael and Rachel. John and I are both really excited! I have some pictures that I will upload later on this evening or tomorrow.

Ellie's Dedication

Wow we had an awesome day today! It was a big day for our family. Ellie was dedicated to our church. John and I have made the promise to God to raise her in a strong Christian home! We are very excited to start her journey to become a Christian! All of my family, John's parent's and our amazing friends were able to attend! It was great our friends spent most of Mother's Day with us! We even had one friend come from Evansville and another from Ft.Wayne! Our friends really knew how much this day meant to us!! It's such a blessing to have all of our amazing friends! We are thankful to those of you who came to share this day with Ellie. It was a very exciting day for us and it meant alot to have you attend!!!
I also have great bottle news to report. Ellie has been taking the bottle for the past 2 days during the day! I am very excited about this. She is doing great! Thank you to Nanny Benson for getting us to an amazing start on it Saturday!!!! She saved Mommies life! Here are some pictures from today and some from last week of Ellie playing on her gym.
