11 months old already!

I am yet again saying how fast time is flying by.  In just one short month Miss Ella will be 1 year old.  I can hardly believe it!  Ella is getting into even more things.  She now cruises on furniture and opens every cupboard in the house.  She still loves to play chase.  Ella has also learned to blow kisses this last week.  She understands more and more of what I say.  She is learning the word "No" but doesn't seem to be too upset when I don't let her play with some things.  Luckily for me she is easily redirected.  Aunt Kim took this cute pictures of Ella the other day.

 Ella's hair is now officially long enough for me to put it into piggy tails!  I think it is the cutest.

 Ella has the biggest brown eyes.  

This post is also a catch up post.  I have gotten behind on the blog, due to having a fun, relaxing summer with my family.  These next two pictures are from the 5k Liam and I did along with a lot of my family for Pleasant View's Founders Day.  We had a great time!

We also went to the zoo a few weeks ago for June's birthday.  It was Ella's first zoo trip.  I was really excited to take a bunch of pictures, but I of course forgot the camera.  Luckily for us, my sister Tara, remembered hers and we were able to get a few pictures to remember Ella's first trip to the zoo.  Ella really enjoyed it, even though she didn't watch a ton of animals.

 We took a few pictures, but unfortunately, Liam looked silly in all of them :)
