It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

It's been getting very cold here in Rexburg! Which is not surprising due to the fact that it's practically the arctic tundra here year round! The first time Ella saw snow she just stared and stared in awe and probably some confusion.

These pictures are from one of the days that my friend Kelsey Crowder and I took our girls on a walk and got them all bundled up. It was pretty funny to see them in their little snowsuits unable to move around very well...just like the Christmas Story movie!



Ella's suit is still pretty big on her...supposedly it is for 6-9 months old but it looks like it will last little Ella bear a lot longer than that!



They both look a little dazed in this one, maybe they were just a bit too warm! :)

The following pictures were from earlier in the day before we went on our walk.



Our smiley little Ella Bear!



Sittin' pretty.



Little Buddies! Ella had lots of fun playing with her friend Kamryn! She loves seeing other little babies, she gets really excited and does her "really excited pant" (which resembles the sound you would make to pant like a dog...Chad taught her this skill and now every time Ella gets really excited she does it! It's quite funny).



Cutest little bunny and bear I've ever seen!



Ella and Kamryn always steal each other's binkies every time they get together...i guess they think the grass is greener on the other side!



Success! Ella was able to snatch Kami's binki and then she tried gettin' it into her mouth as fast as possible before Kami got it back from her! Little sillies!

Ella girl!

First encounter with cats!

We went over to Diana and Jason's house and they had gotten two new little kittens and Ella ended up loving them!


At first she wasn't quite sure what to think of them....



But after a second she was all over them!



We had to keep pullin her hands off them... she doesn't really understand how to be"soft" quite yet. She was so cute though, she would just light up every time we brought them near her.





Ella loves playing with Auntie Diana.



She has pretty good time with her Uncle Jason too!







Crackin up at the kittens.



Ella had a great time visiting her Aunt and Uncle!
