enJOY it

Sheellerie

She…

travels like a champ and is still sleeping well too. is apprehensive and curious about trying new things. recieved her first baby doll. giggles loudly when mama kisses her neck. reaches with her eyes and whole body instead of her hands. found her voice last week. is almost exactly the same height and weight that mama was at four months.

He

He…

has been working 12-8pm these past few weeks. is here when Ellerie wakes up now, but misses seeing her before bedtime. is awesome at making coffee. is such a phenomenal dad.

Sheejbc

She…

is anxious for a haircut. bought a loom kit to play around with some woven project ideas. is making very slow progress on the office overhaul. will be teaching at Play! in Anaheim. is tired, but happy.

…all photos were taken yesterday morning. this fun journaling idea came from Stephanie Howell.

    This is so wonderful. Probably my favorite pictures from you in so long. They’re so real. 🙂

    I have that same loom kit! It was one of the (many) impulse items I bought from HSN/QVC during my last maternity leave. I used it once to make some pretty yarn flowers that I thought would turn into headbands, but never did, LOL. Can’t wait to see what you do with it – maybe I’ll feel inspired to make some Christmas gifts!

    oh how I have missed reading your blog. Since having my baby last week– I haven’t had time to do much of anything. I love this post and will for sure do one of my own.

    I’m sorry but I have the embarrassment chills from your selfies. Get over yourself!

    I have the embarrassment chills from sharing my name (which, by the way, means grace) with someone as rude as you. Take your negativity elsewhere.
    Elise – I love the addition of Ellerie in these posts! Your family is adorable 🙂

    love this journaling concept! it’s so cool learning more about ellerie as she develops and so interesting to hear how you describe her little idiosyncrasies 🙂 y’all are my fave
    p.s. I totally wish I had more pictures of my mom when she was my age and a new mom, unfortunately selfies weren’t a thing back then 😉
