Tybee Island

Ella's first visit to the beach was today! We headed out to Tybee Island and enjoyed a great day of sun and sand!!

Ella was a water baby... She loved digging her hands in the sand and kicked her legs in the water when the waves would come in. We all, except for Ella, got a little sun burn but nothing a little aloe can't handle. After that we enjoyed some great seafood at The Crab Shack, I enjoyed some Big Kahuna's! I love vacation :)

Savannah

We are having a fabulous time in Savannah! This is an amazing city... Ella is enjoying the company of Rachael and Emily! The whole complex is just beautifully placed along the river. More to come....

Wonderful Two's

Until Ella, these two beautiful children were the babies in our family! This week they turned 2 years old... They are growing into these amazing little personalities. Our family is blessed to have such wonderful children!!!

1st MTSU Football game

MTSU played it's 1st game Thursday evening against Troy. The Blue Raiders were defeated but it was a fun night. Tracy, my good friend/co-worker picked out the cute MTSU pink onsie! Thanks Tracy! Of course Chelsea, Tracy's baby, has a blue onsie and we had to get pictures!

Our Bean...

Then...








Ella Jean hit the 6 month marker yesterday and what better way to celebrate then to go get immunization shots!

It has been a wonderful journey! Ella is such a blessing in our lives. She makes us smile every time we look at her. She is learning new things everyday and taking in life as best as she knows how. As parents, Jeramy and I have had a lot of learning lessons! Even in the hardest moments I am able to think back to the wonderful day she was born and laugh at how sudden it all happened. She is our spontaneous girl and she fits into our lives so perfectly. Our Ella is a gift from God.

Now...









As I mentioned above, Ella had her big appointment yesterday and she was amazing. These are her stats:

Weight: 13lbs. 7.5oz (10%)
Length: 26 1/4 (50%)

I laughed so hard when I was told her length percentile. At her 4 month check up she was in the 20% for length, now 50th %. She is little, but she is long! Ella loves food... She would take food over formula any day. We are also working on sitting up. Just yesterday she began holding herself up with her arms! (see the above picture) I'm sure she will be sitting up all of the way in no time!

Thank you Ella Jean for being such a blessing in our lives!

Go Eagles!

Down a long country road comes a small town named Eagleville. Back in the day this used to be my stomping ground. There wasn't much to do except ride four wheelers and cruise the back roads at night. But all of that has changed...They have FOOTBALL!! Saturday was the jamboree for the Division 1A football teams in Chapel Hill, TN. Jeramy and I loaded up EJ and headed to the game to watch our friend Kent Coach and defeat Cannon County in their first game of the season!

Go EAGLES!!!

This is Kent's first year at Eagleville and I think th team is going to blossom! Here are some pictures from our fun night:

Does it get any sweeter...

This morning, I laid Ella on her floor to play while I was getting ready for work. I came in a little later to check on her and this is what I found:

She was fast asleep on the floor! Sorry it is blurry, I took the picture with my camera phone. What a sweet little girl :)
