Since I think that very little is cuter than babies in a sink.  I am going to let you all enjoy these two while I work on my next post.

let me explain

Posted by Sandi in Ellie

It's hair-do day today.  I have left this hair in an absolute disarray for multiple reasons.  

1-Bronson

2-Brandon loves the "Fro and a Bow" style

3-and most importantly this….

This was December 23rd…. I don't think enough time has passed for either one of us to forget.

It starts out okay.  

She gets a treat.

It helps dull the pain. 

But by the end…

That lollipop isn't doing squat!

Her hair-do is done.  

Totally finished.  

But she is so heartbroken she can hardly pull herself together. 

 

This is my favorite.  She forces the "cheese" through her tears.  

And then she starts all over again.  

I hate breaking her heart.  

Seems like being a mom (lately) is full of heartache.  

Poor baby!  It's gut wrenching. 

Just looking at this picture is making me re-think the entire thing.  

Maybe daddy is onto something with the whole "fro and a bow" look.

Don't let this angelic face fool you.

She is full of it!

I don't know how we could live without her craziness!

We don’t need furniture

Posted by Sandi in Ellie

I took the little kids up to the new house today to measure windows for curtains.  Eliie enjoyed the wide open space so much, I think we should consider leaving the entire house empty and open a dance studio….  It would be so much cheaper than buying six sofas.

It’s the binky today….  

Tomorrow it will be the toys.

Next week they will be stealing each other’s clothes, boyfriends, and makeup.

Sailor and I both want to know who in the hell this Ginormous Gigantosaur with teeth is and what happened to our baby Ellie?

Happy Birthday Ellie Brooke

Posted by Sandi in Ellie, birthday

Where did the year go?  It was just yesterday I was packing my suitcase to pick her up.  Full of wonder and hope, I hopped on a plane to Houston to meet and bring home my daughter.  Look at this angel.  She had us at "waaa."  I fell in love hard and fast with this girl. 

Welcome home baby girl

Ellie Brooke 4 days

I don’t know how we lived without her.  From moment one this little lady grabbed our hearts and wrapped us ALL around her little finger.  We are over the moon in love with this princess.  

And today, she is miserable, sick, and just wants to be held and rocked and walked around with. So forget the cake for now, but I promise a decent birthday post with pictures as soon as she is feeling better.

Happy birthday little one.  

I love you

She is still a perfect baby.  

She isn’t walking and not even close. (YAY)

She pulls herself up to everything.  

She eats everything.

She loves french fries.

She is done with the bottle.

She takes two great naps a day and sleeps all night.

She is fast as lightning on all fours.

If she is missing, look for her in the dogs food and water…  She’ll be there. 

She still HATES hair-do’s but she looks like an orphan without one.  

Still only two teeth.

30 more days of baby. 

1st birthday’s make me sad.

I LOVE this baby so much!!
