It's been a long couple of days. Ella has been sleeping in our bed. I love it of course but I don't sleep that we'll when she's in here. To make it worse; she's running a fever. Now I worry about her and don't want to sleep.
I know she's cutting teeth. She has one that is almost all the way through. And it looks like there are 5 more trying to make their way through! My poor baby!!
Dan and I have been contemplating doing this for a couple of months. Haven't wanted to because that would mean that I would have to admit that my child is no longer a baby!
I mean, I KNOW she isn't but I just want to keep her my baby as long as possible!
After getting our haircut we went to our favorite fast-food place for a celebration!
I feel so blessed to be chosen to be Ella's mom! She is such a pleasure and joy to raise! Granted she is a handful but I wouldn't have her any other way!!
So I had to buy a new phone last week. My old one just completely crapped out on me. Stopped working for no reason. Bad thing was I didn't have insurance on it.
AT&T has a New program where you basically "lease" a new phone. O wasn't up for an upgrade so that is the route I took!
The phone I got has some really cool features on it. Still learning it. The screen on this phone is bigger than my entire old phone; which was bigger than my old iPhone!
I'm either going to go to sleep or play with my phone.
It's the first day of school for most people in Texas. My nieces started todau; one Kindergarten and two started 2nd Grade. I have one niece that is going to be home schooled but did start part of her program on Friday!
I can't believe how fast my babies are growing up! Emery just turned 8 last week!! She and Jossie will be teenagers before I know it!
I know it is inevitable that Ella will start school, but I don't want to think about her leaving me for the day! I can't even bring myself to let her stay the night with any of her grandparents!
But I do know that when the time does come, she will be great! She will make lots of friends on her first day!
I love all my babies and I hope for the best school year for each and every one of them!!!
The Fort Worth Zoo has had another baby elephant born this summer! Prior to Baby Belle there hasn't been a baby elephant born since the mid 90's!!
The bigger baby is Belle and the new baby is Bowie! They are so cute!!
Love it when we visit Dan's mom. She loves that little girl so much. But E doesn't sleep after visiting! Not sure why. Marilyn doesn't over stimulate her. Doesn't really give her sugars. They just play and eat tomatoes!
We got home late tonight and E fell asleep about 5 mins from home (typical) tonight she woke up at 1:30 am and I rocked my sweet baby and rubbed her back until she fell back to sleep. She hasn't fallen asleep on my chest since she was a wee little baby!
I loved every bit of it!!
I stood in her room for about 15 mins after I put her back in her crib and watched her sleep! Such a sweet little thing!
I found myself at awe that I get to be HER mommy!!
It's that time of year when my aquatic kids start leaving for their respective schools. This year's especially hard since I didn't get to see much of them. I don't miss working for the last place but I do miss my kids!
I have slowly lost contact with my GV babies, but I still have contact with quite a few of my A-Town kids. Never had any in Trophy Club. And there is a handful of them from Sags. I love those kids and miss them!
