Updates on Sweet Grandma

Today my grandma had her first dialysis treatment. She says she has felt sick all day and very tired. The doctor told her she will have another treatment on Friday. Please keep her in your prayers. She is the only grandparent I have left, and the only great-grandparent Ella has. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.

What a Mess!

Ella has decided to become miss independent with meal time! She does not want any help with eating. So, I let her do her thing, which means a big mess! I most always give her a bath after she eats. I guess she thinks she will paint herself and the highchair with the food. She has to learn to feed herself at some point, Right??? She has a good time and she is eating, that's okay, I can let go of my OCD just a little. LOL!
Everyone told me about this whole thing about our house not being emaculate all the time and I am finally figuring that out. I try....
A few pics of the messy little love.

Who Knew?!?

Chis and I have discovered that Ella would rather watch Hannah Montana, Suite Life of Zach & Cody, Wizards of Waverly Place, and Life with Derek than any of the animated shows on the Disney Channel. She is too funny. She will sit and watch these shows and be totally oblivous to anything else. These are just a few pictures of her watching Hannah Montana. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The last picture is Chris reading a book to Ella. So Sweet.

My Sweet Grandma.

Please pray for my grandmother. She has gone into acute renal failure. The doctor is giving her 5-7 days to see if the medicine will pull the 45 pounds of extra fluid off. If not then he wants to do a kidney biopsy, and possible dialysis. This will be a long road. So please keep her in your prayers.

Thank you.

14 Months...

Today Ella is 14 months. I cannot believe time has gone by so quickly. I am so proud to be Ella's mommy. She has been so fun to watch grow and blossom. She has her daddy wrapped around his little finger, but when it comes to her basic needs, she wants her mommy. And that is okay, because her mommy don't mind at all. We will be going to the Dallas Arboretum next week so I will have more pics to come. Stay tuned...

July 4th 2008

We had a great July 4th! We spent it with my parents. Ella had a fun time with her Grandpa, Nana & Uncle. She was not so sure about the fireworks at first.

A day at the Fort Worth Zoo......

We took Ella to the Zoo yesterday. She loved it! I think she enjoyed people watching more than anything. She is such a little social butterfly. It was a little hot, but we had a great time. Needless to say Ella slept all night until 8am.
