Lately...

...we have been enjoying some BEAUTIFUL spring weather...

..We got to go to the San Diego temple to see Jay and Rachel get married for time and all eternity...

...We have made a few trips to the happiest place on earth...

...And spent some time with cousins...

Three more weeks left in my spring semester! Then let the summer fun begin!

Ella Dialogues: Finger Foods

Mom's trying to get me to eat food with my fingers. These are pretty hard to pick up...

Maybe if I use my foot...

Wait a minute, I'd better check the nutrition facts...

Oh great, I dropped it on my shirt...

Success!

Uhhh... what is this stuff?

hmm Maybe the container tastes better!

Easter

Just thought I'd post some pictures of Sweet Ella in her Easter dress.

Sacramento

Last Saturday we did a day trip to Sacramento to visit Grandma and Grandpa Patton. It would be Ella's first time on a plane and her first time meeting her Great Grandma and Grandpa. She did great on the plane. We watched some Baby Einstein and she was happy as a clam.

We had a great time visiting with Grandma and Grandpa and Auntie Karen. It was so nice to see them.

It was hard to leave at the end of the day. We were sad it was such a short trip, but were so glad we got to go.

Videos...

Brandon playing "Attack Blocks" with Ella. I can't watch this without laughing...

...And Ella learned to play peek-a-boo by herself.

Taking Flight

This Saturday we will be taking Ella on her first flight on an airplane. We are going up to Sacramento and back to visit Grandma and Grandpa Patton who will be meeting Ella, their great granddaughter, for the first time! We are so excited and can't wait to go. I'm a little nervous to see how Ella will do on the plane. If anyone has any tips for making plane trips with babies a little easier, please comment!
