This past week has been BUSY! Take a look at all the things we did and so many of Ella's firsts...
WE WENT TO THE BEACH
It was in the high 60's this past weekend so we headed over to the beach which is only 36 miles (there are closer ones but we went to the nice one). Once we actually got on the beach it felt 20 degrees colder but in the town was still very warm. So we visited the beach very briefly and then headed to some really great outlet malls close by... CHILDREN'S PLACE OUTLET is AMAZING- $2.99 for racks of things, so Ella got some stuff for next winter :)

Ella was not as excited as we were
Happy daddy and Ella
Not sure if she wants to smile because of how cold the wind was, but we got her to :)
we LIVE close to this, crazy huh? It will be so nice in the summer time
SWIM LESSONS
We started our swim lessons at the YMCA last week and Ella LOVED them. She really could not stop smiling and sqweeling for joy! She watched all the little kids very carefully and flirted tons.
playing in the water
saying hi and being social
this is a face that she has been making A TON lately... it is almost scary haha... she goes to smile and scrunches her nose so much she looks pissed, but really she is ecstatic!
LITTLE MUSIC NOTES
We also started this little music class at the YMCA where we sing and dance. Ella seemed to like it but it made my head hurt, it was so chaotic. Babies crying, mothers looking at themselves in th mirror rather then playing with their child, ONE KID actually TACKLED another kid to the ground and made the other cry.... while Ella simple watched and let out a loud yell here and there while we were singing.... I think it is going to be painful to go back, but she liked it. Hopefully it goes better next week.
Singing old McDonald, Ella had the cow
Listening very carefully :)
Our new purchase as of Sunday.... it looks like a jail, but she doesn't seem to mind it. I am planning on putting it in the office so she has a lot of place to roll, crawl and play but won't end up chewing/sucking on the bottom of the chair (gross I know)!!
OUR NEIGHBORS
Acouple house down lives JACK! Ella and Jack met for the first time last night and Ella couldn't keep her hands off of him, literally. She tried to pick his nose, grab his face, take his socks off for him and basically get as close as possible! Jack mostly just sat there and took it :) haha, poor guy!
When they first met
Ella taking off his sock and yelling and TRYING very hard to get a reaction out of him, this picture makes me laugh....
...WHAT A MONSTER!
There you have it, our past week of craziness.

I have a singer, from Target. It is good for beginners, not the nicest machine on the market, but since you just want to learn how it is a good value. I like it so far and it is working well for me!
Ella is adorable and has grown so much. Isn't it crazy how fast it all goes by?
Hope all is well in your world, it sure sounds like things are good.
Did you get that swim suit at target? i think i have the same one. That play oen reminds me of the Rugrats cartoon.
She is getting so big! I cant wait to see you guys again.
