Ellie has had some digestion issues lately. One of the ways I have been combating it is putting her on the dryer while I fold clothes next to her on the washing machine. Ellie loves the heat, vibration, and white noise of the dryer. Don't worry she only sits up there when I am right next to her :).
Ava helped me put together the double stroller. She is so excited that she gets to sit next to her baby sis. Literally as soon as I put on the wheels of the stroller she jumped up into the seat and would not get out until we went on a walk. Here she is looking at the owner's manual as I put on the stroller accessories.
I was brave and took the girls out to the grocery store on my own to get some essentials....needless to say, I will not be doing that again until Greg is deployed when I have no other option.
Nanny (what Ava has now named her) and PopPops came back to help us out and visit again for a few days. Nanny is giving Ellie her first bath in her infant bath tub.
She is not particularly fond of baths yet but she does love when you massage her head with the baby shampoo.
She was a very content baby after her bath
You can't tell here but Ava is wearing her Navy Jersey that the Butalas got her for the Notre Dame Game- The three of the Navy fans brought good luck in the victory over ND!
Petite girl!

We were very fortunate not to have any damage to our house or car during the Nor'easter last week that hit Hampton Roads. We didn't even lose power. The only side effect of the storm was us getting stir crazy. I took the girls to a bounce house to get out some of the wiggles with the Heberts.
Ava was constantly on the go here so it was very hard to snap a picture of her
A wee bit small to go on the inflatables at the bounce house
Ellie's "work out" time.
After I got out of my shower I walked out to Miss Ava waiting patiently in our bed for me to read her "two dog" book.
She is so tiny in our bed.
Ava is very protective over Ellie
Daddy's girls
Ava so excited to be rocking red high heels
Ava reading Ellie a book in Ellie's car seat. Isn't it hard to believe that Ava used to fit in that car seat?
Aunt Jess stopped by to meet her new niece!
Ellie snuggled up to her immediately
One of the best feelings- Ellie falling asleep on your chest.
