The Kids





It's been too long since I've posted and now I feel overwhelmed!!! There are a lot of cute pictures to post and stories to tell, but I'm just going to have to start out slow for now! Life has been great, a little crazy, but great. I am adjusting to life as a mom of two. I feel like Ella has been with us all along and it feels very natural now to be toting around two little ones. I love them so much and feel blessed to be their mom. We've been busy trying to get out of the house and get back to "normal" life, whatever that is. Here are a few updates...

*Will is very protective of Ella. During her first weeks of life he would actually get really upset and sometimes cry when other people would hold her. He says, "my sissy" and "look baby" a lot. It's pretty cute. He wants to show Ella everything.

*Thank goodness for my ergo carrier and the infant insert. I have been able to take long walks, get out and about, and chase Will around with both of my hands free. Thanks to all my girlfriends who pitched in so I could have this life saving device!

*Two words that I would use to describe Ella right now are feisty and interactive. That girl has a lot of spunk! She has been cooing and smiling for a while now. I love to just sit and talk to her and have her say "goo" back to me. Ahhh...babies...who knew I would be one of these women that just goes nuts for all of this baby stuff, huh???

Great pictures, and GREAT kids, Tonya!!! I particularly love the look on Will's face in the last picture. It's the epitome of sweetness.

Ella has grown so much. They grow too fast, don't they? You are definitely blessed with two beauties!
