Boy, my dad is fast! He did really well in the marathon. He ran 26.2 miles in 3 hours and 39 minutes. It was cold out, so I had to stay bundled up in my stroller while we were outside. Thanks grandma for the message. I thought you would like the pictures of us together.
Love,
Ellie

Hey everybody!
I'm going to my cousin Lisa's wedding today. It will be fun. My mom is reading during the ceremony, so I have to be really quite. Also, my daddy is running is the Green Bay Marathon tomorrow. Good Luck Dad!!!! We'll post pictures from the big event next week!
Love,
Ellie

This was my last week at home with Ellie. Time for me to go back to work. Neil is taking over. I know that he'll do so well. Happy Mother's Day to all the mother's in our lives.

Ellie loves the mobile in her bed. It's great, except when we want her to sleep and all she does is watch it!

We finally got a picture of Ellie smiling.
