Girls Rule!

It's strange to me that I used to dream of having a little boy, but I did.  I had his name picked out.  I bought him his first outfit.  But God has different plans...and boy are they GREAT!  I love, love, love having a daughter!  I can't imagine not having Ella Beth.  What's neat, is that Scott feels the same way.  He loves having a little girl, too.  Of course, I am sure we would have felt the same way if we had had a boy. :)100_1163_2 100_1165_2



We went to Mimi's house (my mom's) for the weekend and had a wonderful visit.  I believe when Ella Beth gets bigger she is going to have a hard time leaving.  She will be so excited to swim, ride the Sea Doo, play with the animals, and even drive the golf cart.  She got in some practice this weekend.  The way she placed her hands correctly on the steering wheel and wrapped her tiny fingers around the wheel made it look like she has been driving her whole life!  She had such a good time.  100_1168_2 100_1166_2





A friend of mine, Jennifer Stowe, gave Ella Beth a jumper and it has become her favorite past time.  She would jump up to 30 minutes if we let her!  It's hilarious watching her jump up as far as she can; she can clear about 12 inches!  She loves to sway and turn in it as she plays with toys.  It's also a hoot to watch her drop her toys and then try to bend over in her jumper and look for them.  Too cute!  Thanks, Jenn, for such a good gift!100_1169_2

Looks like such a good time! She's just precious. We have a bouncer too - can't wait for him to be able to use it. Glad y'all had a good weekend - looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.

I second that - I love having a girl, too! And it just gets better and better as they get older! So glad you are blogging - glad I contributed to it in a small way. ;) Happy Monday!
