It has been really exciting getting to know Ella and introducing her to our lives. Yesterday, we went on a tour of campus with my mom and took Ella to see where I go everyday. Ella came at the perfect time for her parents, as I was off of school for three weeks. Ella has now met both of her grandmothers too. This week, Grandma Leslie is out here with us, helping us out as I have gone back to school now. Grandma Carolyn came out just after Ella was born; she came home from the hospital with us. It is a blessing to have them around and have them share with us their experience and wisdom. We’ve had a lot of fun with them. Ella loves to be held by both of her grandmas. They’ve also brought out a lot of neat presents and have really spoiled Ella. Grandma Leslie made the ruffled blanket which made a great, colorful prop in another of Ella’s photoshoots. Her great-aunts have also sent out a lot of presents and she loves them too.
Ella’s personality is showing through a little more too. She liked her bath a lot last night, but didn’t like it the time before. She is getting better at letting us know what she wants (or at least Liz and I are getting better at recognizing what she needs). We are so happy that she is here with us. The three of us are also excited for Ella’s cousin, who is coming sometime soon. We can’t wait to meet her!
