Happy Birthday Elena!

Elena turned one month old and was blessed on Sunday. Thanks to everyone who came and for all your help! We really appreciate everyone driving all the way out here so early in the morning. It was so neat and meant a lot to us to get to have our family with us and to watch all you wonderful men help bless Elena.

Well, what is Elena up to at one month old? Lots of things! She likes to stretch, look out the window, roll over half way (like from her back to her side), and to make little squeaks and grunts. She just learned how to spit up and is practicing her skills a couple of times a day. :) She makes Zoolander faces, is starting to be able to focus better and likes to look around and explore, loves bath time, still likes to stay up really late, and LOVES her dad (daddy time is the best!). She's also smiling a ton! It is so cute and makes me melt everytime.

Elena's new favorite hobby???


...Checking out the saltwater aquarium with Dad. She really does love it. Eric takes her over and sits her down close enough that she can see and she stares at things for a long time.

We love our little girl!!!
