Ella {43 Weeks}



This week we've been finishing up the move, and working on getting settled. Once we unpacked our bags from the trip, we spent a couple days cleaning the old house. Now we're focused on unpacking our new house. Of course that's easier said than done with a nearly-10-month-old in the house. She's so curious about all boxes and of course the new territory, so I spend most of my time playing defense! But we're really enjoying being back in our own beds and getting back into a routine. 

There's a small park just a couple houses down from us, so we've been going there every day.

Ella isn't big enough for most of the park, but we make due!

On Friday night, the Pegula Ice Arena hosted a Country Skate Night for the PSU students, so Mike was working late. Ella and I stopped by to say hello, and she helped Dana [mike's assistant] with the audio!

And Ella got a new wagon! She just loves taking walks in it around our new neighborhood.


As far as eating goes, Ella has been trying a few new things. She's tried some new fruits & veggies, and a few new combinations. She seems to be open to eating more things than before, and she even ate green beans & peas! We're just starting on State 3 foods too, which are more coarse and textured. She still doesn't really like baby puffs or anything solid like that, but we'll keep trying.

Sleeping isn't back to "normal" [whatever that is] since we got home. She's wanting to eat during the night, which she hadn't done before our trip. I think maybe she's going through a growth spurt, because nearly all of her clothes that fit three weeks ago are too small now!

She's happy. She's growing. Life is good!
