Ella's a scootin and a moving. As most of you know Ella has been sleeping in her car seat some nights. It's the only way we could get her to sleep for a couple of hours so Mommy and Daddy could get some sleep. Anyway, yesterday morning Mike rolls over and I hear him say, "Where did she go?" Of course, I hear this and thinking someone has ran off with my daughter I roll over and ask him to clarify. He reaches down and pulls her up onto the bed. Apprently Ella wiggled herself completly out of the carseat and onto the floor. She was close enough to our bed that she was actually under the bed with just her little head sticking out!!! How funny is that?!!

Last night, we went all night without a feeding!! We have been trying to get this accomplished for a week or so now and last night was the first. She went down at 9am, got up at 4am, we rocked for about 5 minutes and she was out again. Slept until almost 7am!! Mommy was so well rested that we got up and went walking at 8am. Ella loves to go for walks and feel asleep almost as soon as we left the driveway.


As I'm sitting here, Ella is making this strange noises. I just got up to check on her and she is asleep. The only thing I can figure is that she is dreaming but here is my question. What in the world does a nine week old dream about?

Our cruise is in 9 weeks and I've been working hard to get back to pre-prego weight before then. I'm down 1.5 lbs this week, Yeah for me!!!

Very funny about Ella running away to underneath your bed. Watch out - this is only the first of many defiant displays of independence that you and Mike will experience over the next 18 years.

Good job on the weight. You look awesome! It will keep melting right off.

That's funny that she's starting wiggle her way out! Glad she didn't get too far though. ;o) She'll be scootin' all over the place before you know it!
