Dad had a snow day today so we took Ella to get her first Christmas tree. She dressed in her warm bunny bear outfit, reminding us a bit of The Christmas Story. (At first, Geoff thought this was a bunny outfit, but was later informed by Jessica that it was a bear outfit, due to [...]

Ella got to meet her Tete (Aunt) Michelle, Uncle Paul, and cousins Chase (second picture), and Jack (above).
She loved them! Tete Michelle brought lots of adorable new outfits for Ella, which she has been sporting all over town recently. Her new bunting has been keeping her extra warm.

Jessica’s longtime friend Kristy and her husband Jamie were in town from Indianapolis and swung by to meet little Ella for the first time. I don’t know if you can tell from the picture, but Ella gave Kristy quite the look.

We’ll have more pictures up later, but here is a look at Ella’s room. Geoff and Grandpa Brian did the painting, and Jess did the interior decorating. It used to be the study, but we like it much better as Ella’s cosy little nursery.
We have this cool old bookshelf to put in there (on the other [...]
