Giggles & Grins!












Abby had a fun time modeling a sweet outfit from Aunt Val this afternoon. You can tell by her expressions she's thinking she looks pretty adorable. I have to agree!

Sweet Sister Siesta!


After a busy week, both girls took a sister-nap on our bed Friday afternoon.
Ellie with her fingers, Abby with her thumb. So sweet.

What a big girl!

It's amazing how fast Abby is growing!
She's started holding her toys,
trying to sit up when propped on her Boppy,





and she smiles ALL the time! She's such a happy little girl!

The big camp out!







Ellie & Daddy had a fun campout last night in the living room, complete with an air mattress, awesome "tent", popcorn, movies & glo-sticks!



Friday Cuties!




Ballet Class

Thursday, I was Ballet Mom for Ellie's ballet class. Abby really wanted to dance, too, but I told her when she's 3, she can attend Ms. Kathy's class!


But she wore her ballet slippers just in case!

The girls did some lovely dances with pretty scarves!



And practiced for their spring program.


This little girl LOVES ballet class!!



Tasty Thumb!

Pretty in Pink!







Webkinz Wizard



Ellie's cousins gave her a Webkinz pet last summer when we were in Virginia and she's been hooked ever since! She's acquired quite a collection of 'Kinz and has customized her Webkinz world. She can navigate the site like a whiz!

Toys are fun!









Big sister Ellie was sweet to share one of her favorite infant toys with Abby! Abby loves it and Ellie had fun showing her all the "features" of the play gym.

An appropriate outfit for every occasion







For tonight's BCS National Football Championship, Ellie decided she needed to dress in appropriate "football watching clothes." Doesn't every football fan wear a tiara and butterfly wings?

Little Artist

"Big sister Ellie's drawing. This is my picture of a beautiful house with decorations. A book. Dora's backpack and a heart. I love the drawing so much. I hope you will love it too." by Ellie.

Best Big Sister Ever!







Ellie is the best big sister. Ever. She's so patient with Abby, bringing her toys and making her smile. Today, Abby was holding her head up, looking around, and Ellie said "Abby has the power!"

Three months old!







Abby turned three months old yesterday! She's such a happy little baby! A true delight.
