Day Seventy Three.

Holding one's own bottle is a not often mentioned but very appreciated developmental milestone!

Day Seventy Two

Spinach, hemp seeds, flax seeds, banana and avocado is Ella's new favorite!

Day Seventy-One

Our friends and nieghbours lent us a jumperoo to keep this busy girl in one place. I wouldn't say she loves it...but she tolerates it. And if it means I can have a shower...then I'll take it!

Day Seventy.

The Cousins! Onnika and Ella are only 10 months apart. This age gap is quickly closing and I am excited for their relationship to grow. I can only imagine this time next year they will be running around playing together and hosting tea parties.

Day Sixty-Nine

Happy 6-0 Grandad!!!

Day Sixty Eight.

We celebrated with Aunt Robyn and Uncle Andrew last night at their engagement party. Ella stayed up way past her bedtime so she got to sleep in her party clothes.

Day Sixty Seven.

Ella is used to getting her photo taken. She has also learned that we enjoy when she smiles for the camera. On her way to that smile...she gives us a few more signature expressions. She keeps us smiling all the time!
