Road Trip....

It's been a little while since my last posting, but we went on our first family vacation. We drove to Florida to visit Troy's parents. Elizabeth got to meet her Grandpa, Uncle Stephen, Aunt Lauren, and Great Grandpa Pops! We decided to drive and she did so well. We stopped every 4 hours or so and stretched her legs. We also went to the beach and she liked it. She didn't get in the sand or water, but she was laughing a lot out there. We were only there for an hour or so, and she feel asleep. :) Here are pictures from the trip:

Nap time


We were at Ron John's in Cocoa and tried this hat on Ellie. She was SO cute!


She loved these sunglasses too.



Here are just a few more pictures that were not part of vacation:

At my parents house in Palo Pinto.


Ellie in her life jacket out on the boat at my parents house.

I also took her to get her pictures taken. Here are just a few of the 84 they took!! I was able to narrow it down to just 8 poses that I kept. It was SO hard! The white and pink dress she has on was mine when I was a baby. I was so glad that I got pictures taken of her in it.





An outfit that Ellie got from my coworkers. She looked SO cute in it! She's able to play in her exersaucer now....Troy thinks it is going to give her ADD. It's a little busy, but she really likes it.

Angie, the pictures are WONDERFUL!!!! Welcome back, by the way! Love the sunglasses and the bathing suits on baby girl, how cute are those? The professional pictures are great - it's so cool that you got her picture taken in the outfit that you wore when you were a baby, what an amazing memory for you both! Glad to hear Ellie is doing so well - you go, girl!! :)

OK, how much do I LOVE her little fat thighs!!! Ellie is so cute. Glad to hear your roadtrip went well. Hopefully she just slept most of the time to make it easier on you guys. I hope you are enjoying being back at work!
