11 weeks

Dear Ellie,

Well it is Sunday morning instead of Saturday, so technically you are 11 weeks and 1 day. Yesterday was a LITTTTLE too crazy to write (more on that later!)

Last Saturday we had a "down" day. We stayed around the house and chilled out for the most part. Daddy built a pen for Truffle outside and we stayed inside, did laundry and watched the ND game.

Sunday, we were off to church as usual. You wore one of my favorite dresses! And you were so smiley. I love that you are smiling more. That grin can turn a bad day around for me so quickly.



Then it was to the gym, a bit early, so you could have snuggles with Aunt Bridgette. She requested to see you. You have SO many people that love you, baby bean!

Monday we went to the breastfeeding group. You are getting so big! You were up to 10 pounds on the nose! And all the nurses were commenting on how alert you are! Yeah, I could have told you that...you are so alert that getting you down for naps is HARD sometimes! You are still loving your activity mat too. You giggle at yourself in the mirror and love kicking the keyboard. You, Truff and Daddy all have fun playing on it. See?


Tuesday we stayed around the house too, and had a fashion show day in order to see how your Christmas dresses were going to fit. You look gorgeous in them, baby Bean! You are SUCH a beautiful little girl! Now I have to figure out what Daddy and I are going to wear in our Christmas pictures. I feel like I need to dress better since I have such stunning little daughter!


Wednesday we went to have lunch with Daddy. He loved getting a visit from his princess in the middle of the day. And then he took you back to work and walked all around the shop showing you off. He was very cute, he was just BEAMING, getting to show off his little princess. Everyone, of course, told us how adorable you are. 


Thursday and Friday we stuck around here for the most part, with just a couple errands here and there. You did have a bad night Wednesday night where you DID NOT sleep, which made for a sleepy Mommy on Thursday! 

We have been taking Truff for some nice long walks. But since it has been colder, we've had you in your snowsuit, and then in the beco. You LOVE your snowsuit and try to eat it. Anything fuzzy against your face makes you a very happy girl!!!


Then, yesterday...ROAD TRIP number 2! You went with us and the Black team to Dayton to do a stunt clinic. You were a very good girl. Minimal fussiness in the car, and you had very good snuggles with Aunt Andrea when you were there. She wrapped you up in her magic blanket, and you were VERY happy!


You also survived your first Steak and Shake experience. Fun! AND you cheered ND on to another victory. 11-0! That makes you very happy, see?


You are so amazing, little bean. Every single day, you just get more and more fun. Your smiles and giggles, and little coos are adorable. When you are asleep, you will coo sometimes and Daddy and I just giggle back at you. We haven't gotten over the fact that we have such an awesome little girl, and I hope we NEVER EVER forget that (even when you only let Mommy get an hour and a half of sleep!). I love every little thing about you and am so lucky that I get to be your Mommy. You're the best, baby birdie, and I love you SO much.

I love you!
Mommy
