Ponies and Pigtails

Hello everyone! Just wanted to share a few pics from my fun weekend.

I got to ride on a carousel for the first time. It was a little bit scary, but I was brave. (Mostly I was just tired because it was nap time - otherwise I think I would have enjoyed it more.) Next time...

Aren't I cute! Mom decided that my hair was finally long enough for pigtails.

Check me out - I'm sitting up all by myself. Before you know it I'll be cruising all over the house. Get ready, here I come!

Hope you have a good week!
Love,

Ella

Eight Months Old

Hello friends! I can't believe it is already September! I am 8 months old now and getting to be quite grown up. :)

I have new big girl car seat...


and a new big girl high chair. My favorite food to eat is baby yogurt - raspberry pear flavor.

I still love to play in my jumparoo and mommy laughs at me when I put my pacifier in my mouth backwards.

This month I also went to the park for the very first time. I LOVE the swings!!! I just couldn't get enough of them.

I also got to go on another airplane trip - down to Dallas, TX to visit Grandma and Grandpa Brinkerhoff. Grandpa Vaughan (below) met me there and he and Dad went to the BYU game, which we won - yay! Here is a pic of us in our BYU shirts.

Grandma and Grandpa Brinkerhoff took me to the Dallas World Aquarium. Dad carried me around most of the time since I couldn't see much from my stroller.

We saw lots of colorful fish...


rain forest animals including a cheetah and lots of kinds of toucans...

and even sharks!!!

I like to travel and I love to visit family. Most of all, I love to experience new things and see new places. I love the outdoors and one of my favorite things to do with Daddy is to take a walk around the house and look at the flowers and watch the bees fly back and forth. Mommy and Daddy and I also like to take walks around the neighborhood on the weekends. I am enjoying the wonderful sunny weather and looking forward to beautiful fall leaves.

Hope you're enjoying hearing my stories!
Love, Ella
