Wow, time really flies. The last month has brought all kinds of realizations to Cameron and I - one of them being that Ella is actually the boss of US! She is teething like crazy and what Ella wants Ella gets! Haha, but in all seriousness, I hope that this truly is a "teething" stage and that we aren't raising a VERY demanding child! She took her first "real" steps this week. She has been taking a step here or a step there for a while, but I think we can officially say she is now walking. She is still a bit wobbly and looks a little drunk when getting from point A to point B but she's giving it her best effort. We are preparing for Ted and Debbie to come visit (and babysit) and couldn't be more thrilled for them to get here this weekend! Ella has all kinds of plans for them... As for her first birthday coming up we are planning lots of celebration! The whole family is getting together to take the kids to Disneyland which will be exciting for Ella but also her cousins Conner and Bailey! I feel bad for whoever has to drive with them because I am sure it is going to be hours of "Are we there yet?" Anyways, here's a couple pictures of her I took for her 1 year old party invites and more to come on the classic Ella crawling in shopping carts and smearing food on her face pictures!
