More new pics

Not much else to report, but I took some new pics, so I thought I had better share! Ellorah got her first ponytail the other day, Miss Breasy from daycare had her hair all fixed up when I went to pick her up last week...it was pretty darn cute. I'm not much on the bows and clips stuff, but a ponytail I can handle. This weekend was a busy one, we had to take the pups to the vet on saturday morning and get them all checked out and a nice rabies shot and get some blood taken for their heartworm test...I had to look away..you'd think after 9 needle sticks in the hospital and 11 hours of natural labor and then major surgery, I'd be used to the needles and stuff like that...but no, they still get to me. : ) That was our first ride with the WHOLE family in the family truckster...baby, momma, daddy and elvis and annie, and we all fit fine. We loaded Ellorah in her seat first, then I sat in the back with her to block any puppies, while Norm loaded the pups in the very back...Elvis thinks he has to always sit right by Norm and has a tendency to jump over whatever may be in his way to do so, but he was very well behaved and didn't divebomb ellorah's carseat to get to Norm. They both traveled like good puppies. After that, Ellorah got to play with her cousin Kaitlyn from California at Aunt Sam's house. I got a couple of pics, but they came out really dark, so I'm not even going to bother posting them. I'm hoping Kelly got some good ones! It was fun seeing all the kids together, and Ellorah got to meet some more relatives that she hadn't seen yet. She did really good, only cried when she was hungry or sleepy, but all in all she put up with us pretty well.

Sunday we did our usual Costco run and then to Calloways for some plants. We got a really neat rosebush called "ebb Tide"...it's a neat dark purple. (Weeks Roses, Ebb Tide) I hope it grows! Norm got everything planted, so I'm excited to see if it all lasts...I don't have the best green thumb, so it's always a struggle for whatever plants we have! We try though! Ellorah spent her time at Costco and Calloways in her sling (Hotslings) and did really well. It's working out well, and it's pretty comfortable, so much so, I ordered another one..the "eye candy"! Click on the link and you can see them. They're pretty cool!

Ellorah also got to nap in her crib this weekend and that was exciting! We're going to start trying to get her to sleep in there a little more, since she's getting bigger and her co-sleeper will only hold up to 22 pounds! She's got 10 more pounds to go before we have to boot her out of there for good. : )

Well, that's all for now, enjoy the pics!
