Okay, maybe a little eventful! We were so thrilled when my old mom-taxi was finally paid off a few months ago...but of course it started klinkin' under the hood...so long story short...I now have a new mom-taxi...and this momma's so excited!
I was fine with the old...but I sure do love the new...and it's been a long time coming! The kids love the dvd player and Alex has claimed his spot in the middle so he is closest to all the controls! However...it does come with a small price...
...he has to sit next to poor Ellie when she's singing! ha!
{And...I'm trying this out...I kinda hope the nickname Ellie sticks...but we'll see how it fits!}
Emily, Ellie and I went to my second cousin, Lindsey's bridal shower on Sunday...and this little spitfire was all fired up!
She would not go to anyone without crying!
Lily was only a little bit successful!
{remember when I took Lily's 6-month pics back here? Now she's 14 months already! I can't believe how long it's been! That was also when I got to take pics of the soon-to-be bride!}
But we still had a good time seeing my mom, sister and all my cousins!
{Ellie and Gram}
{Breanna and Emily}
{...with Hannah...}
{my sis Nicole and me}
Emily had a great time running around with Hannah...
...helping Breanna and Lindsey {sisters} with the gifts...
...and of course enjoying some yummy chocolate-covered strawberries!
My cousin Lisa has so much to prepare for and so much to be proud of this year...
Not only is Lindsey getting married in less than a month...
...But Breanna and her twin brother Brock are graduating high school, and their other brother Seth is graduating from college! Wow, what a year! Congratulations to all of them!
{Elizabeth is mildly amused in this picture because she is pulling Emily's hair!}
I just know it won't be long before that is all happening in our household...and I just know I will cry!
But for now...I'm secretly a little relieved that Ellie is only happy in my arms...because I know she won't be forever! {wah!}
That last picture is great Carrie! I like Ellie:) I hope it sticks! Yay for a new car....I don't know how we lived without the dvd player in our car!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new car!!!! I know you will enjoy it :) I love Ellie! I hope it sticks as well!
ReplyDeleteI love Ellie...I think it is so cute and I too hope it sticks!
ReplyDeleteCute pics!!
I LOVE Ellie! Sounds a lot like Kelli! ;) The new wheels look really nice, too!
ReplyDeleteOMgosh your new ride is sweet. Mine has been paid off for years now. Hmm I will have to drop a little bug in my husbands ear about a new ride :) Love it! Ellie fits her. She is so cute! Stunt Man was the same way for the first 5 months of his life. Cried whenever he was with anyone else. Sadly he started to warm up and now he is just a big boy. sigh. Enjoy it all!
