4th of July Weekend...

Well, Ellie had a blast at the fireworks and the waterski show and the next day we went to the parade... I can't believe how good she was! She giggled throughout the fireworks on her Uncle Terry's lap, and loved visiting with the Cooper Family... Uncle Terry showed her when the parade was coming the next day to get her excited!





Here's Auntie Annie and Ellie showing off their red, white and blue dresses!
Luckily we had the wagon with the shade as it got hot later on, thank goodness for radio flyer!!!

We had a great weekend, and got to see Grandma and grandpa Dornfeld on Sunday as well... We sat outside and got to enjoy the picnic table we found in the attic of the garage of the new house... I guess the last owners forgot they had it! Ellie got to eat some dinner there after swimming in her little blow-up pool!




Thanks for taking a peak! :)

Special Shout Out...

Well, this took a couple tries, but she said it, then when I tried to get her to repeat, it took two videos to get on video :)... We love to look at our friends' blogs!!!

Random words...

Just to give you a guys how good Ellie is doing (or so I think) with her words, here you go!!! :)

And we're back to normal...

My sweet little girl came down with the Hnad Foot and Mouth disease Virus last week and it was crazy at times, but we wanted everyone to know she's back to her normal little self... Full of energy and having a great time! Just incase you were missing fun pictures of her, here's one to tide you over!

Wedding fun!

As a family we went to our first wedding together where Ellie could actually enjoy the music! We congratulate Carla Jo & Mitch Schneider on their new wedding and thank them for the great time! We even got to play with our good friend Ella!!!
I think this pictures is hilarious, I had a parent on each side of me trying to get them to hug or kiss... And this is what i ended up with! ;) They are too cute no matter how you get them! :)

We also had a ton of fun in the pool the next day...

Ellie's BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!

So, we haven't had internet at home for over a month now! WOW! That is the reason for the delay in updating Ellie's blog, and she and I both deeply regret not having more opportunities to update everyone on our lives... But, Ellie has a little announcement... Please see the picture below!

For those of you who don't have a magnifying glass onsight... Her shirt says 'I'm gonna be a BIG sister!'... YAY!!! (Dec. 3rd is the due date, and we'll keep you up to date as we know more!)...

Ellie's Puppy...

Well, seeing that Ellie probably won't ever get the joy of having a real dog of her own, she was lucky enough that her bapa got her a full-sized stuffed dog when she was born to play with instead. She LOVES her puppy, and we wanted to share a picture of how much she loves it!


Ellie has also become the avid reader in her old-age of 19 months! She's getting so good at it she takes the time to read to her baby too! What a nice little girl! :)
