Our Weekend!

Ella and I stayed in Friday night while Sly had a game in St.Hyacinthe.

Saturday Ian came over in the afternoon and invited us over for dinner. We accepted and decided to put Ella in a dress. When does she get to wear a dress? Not very often. So here are a few pics of Ella all dolled up.
Here's Ella and Daddy!

Here's Ella and Mommy! Mommy with with a cheesy smile. I can't wait to get these damn braces off.Here's Ian, Julie & Ella!
So we headed over to Ian & Julie's for fondue and it was yummy. We had a great time. We're getting older because when 10pm came around we were all pooped.

Ella had been fussing a bit because she was tired and wouldn't sleep. She wouldn't sleep because she didn't want to miss a thing. I'm going to have to start calling her curious Ella. So Julie decided to take her and she fell asleep in the following position. Pretty funny.

We then decided to lay her down but that lasted all but maybe 30 minutes and she was up again just people watching being herself, Curious Ella.

Sunday we decided to head down to Mammy's house. We didn't go to Grand-Maman's because Auntie Casey has a virus, fever and everything. Hopefully she feels better soon.

Ella Has A Voice!

Yesterday, Ella discovered she had a voice. She just wouldn't stop making noises. It was the funniest thing. She started off by making noises on the video for Ian's birthday and didn't stop and still hasn't stopped.
So I was able to get a video of her making noises. Sorry about all the drool but she kept putting her hand in her mouth. Lately, she has a tendency to drool like a St. Bernard. People have been saying for months "Her teeth must be coming in." We're still waiting for those teeth.
This wasn't the video I had intended to post but I was difficulty posting the other so this one will have to do. It bugs me because she was talking a lot more on the other one. You'll still get to hear her on this one but what you'll see the most is Ella chewing on her hand.



I had to add this picture of her yawning because I thought it was cute.
Hope all is good with everyone and that everyone has a wonderful weekend.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE SEEVER!

We have a card for you but aren't sure when we'll get to see you so we thought that Ella could wish you happy birthday through video. We hope you have a wonderful birthday and that we get to see you and Julie soon.



Happy Birthday Again!

Love,

Sly, Sarah & Ella

Ella Smiling & In The Bath

Our last ours alone before Daddy is to get back from Tampa. Boy we can't wait to see him and show him those earrings.

Ella & Her Friend

Ella kept looking at her reflection in the mirror and smiling it was so cute.

Our First Video On Our Blog!

Now that i've finally figured out how to post a video, i'd like to introduce Ella and Daddy!



I hope you enjoyed!

Sly's Off To Tampa & The Girls Are Up To No Good.

So this morning we woke up with still no water. What a pain in the neck.

So I called up Ange and asked if we could grace her with our presence. Nice like Ange is she said "Sure come over." So we did and that's when it all began. That's when we started to plot.

So once we had our plan all figured out, we packed the girls in the car. This is them once we reached our destination.

Yes Ange & I decided to get the girls' ears pierced. We had their ears frozen with this special cream and had to wait 50 minutes before we could get them pierced.

Boy were we ever nervous. Ange and I were freaking out, scared that it would hurt the girls and that they would cry.

So here's a picture of Ella getting a black dot put on her ear. The girl did this to make sure she was piercing at the right place so they'd be centered.

So here's Ella getting her ear pierced. Did she cry? No, she just hated that I was holding her head still. She didn't even flinch when the girl pierced her ear. What a trooper. I was freaking out for nothing.

So here's Ella with her ear pierced. Her birthstone is pink, not sure what the name for it is.

from Ella to Daddy:

SURPRISE DADDY!
MY EARS ARE NOW PIERCED, MOMMY AND I FIGURED WE SHOULD GET IT DONE WHILE YOU WERE AWAY BECAUSE WE KNOW YOU'D BE SCARED IT WOULD HURT ME. I WAS A BIG GIRL AND DIDN'T CRY AT ALL. DON'T I JUST LOOK CUTE? I LOVE AND MISS YOU. CAN'T WAIT TO SEE YOU ON THURSDAY.

So here are the girls, about an hour after getting their ears pierced. They were pooped. The mommy's were shopping. Spending on the girls again. They each got a pair of pants, shirt, bandana and pair of tights from the children's place.

Here's a closeup of Audrey's ear. Her birthstone is diamond. What a lucky girl! Diamonds are a girls bestfriend.

And here is Ella's closeup.

If you'd like to see Audrey getting her ears pierced just check out the Belanger's Family Adventure. Ange should have her post up in no time.

Love,

Sarah

Our Mousquiri Weekend.

We spent the weekend in Richmond at the Mousquiri Tournament where Sly was the Honorary President. Ella was so good. She was content just watching hockey games. She got passed around from one set of arms to another and just smiled at whoever would give her the time of day.In the next picture Ella is sitting in the stands watching Guillaume play hockey.
Here's a closeup of Ella watching hockey. We thought that by having a girl, we wouldn't have to spend our time at hockey rinks but I think we were wrong. If Ella watching hockey with such passion now is a sign of her wanting to play later on, boy are we ever in trouble.
Here's Ella just hanging out while Mom is doing volunteer work.
Even Ella got her on volunteer patch.
Today Ella received her second set of shots. Right now she's napping.

So at 4 months Ella is 18lbs, 3 ozs and is 25 3/5 inches tall. She is off the charts for weight and is in the 90th percentile for height.

They were impressed with how strong and alert Ella is. She just kept smiling at the nurse.

I hope all is good with everyone.

Take Care,

Ella & Cereal!

So our Ella is turning into a big girl. She is now having cereal. It's relatively a new thing. She's only had it twice so far.
So in the first picture you can see Ella in her high chair waiting for the cereal. She had no idea what we were about to do.

In the next picture you see Ella trying cereal for the very first time. She wasn't sure how to eat it, she still isn't really sure. She tries to suck it like she does her milk.

And it doesn't come out as fast as milk so she gets upset. This was a little bit more than upset, she was really pissed. And then she had some again.
And then fell asleep from all that work.And then yesterday was cereal time for the second time. She did get impatient again but wasn't as bad as the first time. She seemed to think it was funny to play with her food.

Hopefully all of you will have a great weekend.

Love,

Ella in a good mood with Daddy!

So I was trying to get a good picture of Ella and she would not give me the time of day. Everytime I'd try to get her attention she would look away.

So I called in some help, a guy by the name of Daddy.
And here are the results. Ella was having such fun with Dad.



Then Dad left the room and this is what I got.

I hope you all enjoy the pictures & we'd love to read your comments.

Our Weekend!

On Saturday we went to Grandmaman's house for Lunch.

Then Ella stayed with Grandmaman while Mom & Dad went to see Guillaume Play Hockey.

After Gui's game we went back to Grandmaman's to pick up Ella & headed to J.H.Coles' to look at the paint samples. We got to see Uncle Frank at the same time. We then had dinner at Mammy's and then headed back home to Sherbrooke where we watched The Devil Wears Prada. Sunday the Blackneds came over. I hadn't seen them in forever, it was a really nice visit. Madison was so sweet, she told us that Ella was "Just Perfect". We think you're pretty perfect too Madison.
They've all grown up so much. Last time i'd seen them was probably two years ago in Muskegon. Storm has grown into a little man, then there's Madison who's lost her curls and Sheree who's into her teenage years. Sherree had been playing at a hockey tournament in Bromptonville.
Here's a picture of Storm riding Mountain, Ella's cow. Amber, Ella may not get to use it just yet but it is a hit when kids come over to visit.

Sherree ended up losing in the Finals 2-1 but she did get an assist. How did the kids end up doing at the game Cynthia?

It was really nice seeing the Blackneds. Hopefully we'll be able to get together again real soon.

For Superbowl the Belangers ended up coming over. The Wingfields couldn't make it because they had a couple guys staying with them this weekend, Julie & Jason couldn't come because Jason was called in to work as for Julie & Ian, we don't know what happened to them.

We still had lots of fun, we got to visit with Devella. She talked to us about her JT and Jesus Juice. It was a great time. Keep drinking the Jesus Juice Ange or should I say Devella.

Daddy Went Shopping!

Daddy went shopping and brought some goodies home for his little Princess Ella.

He actually did pretty good.

What do you all think of Sly's picks?

Ella was chewing on her pink shirt. I had to take it away before she got too much drool on it. She has turned into a real St.Bernard.
