Weekend Fun

We had a pretty good weekend. The weather was perfect and we were able to get outside some. Elle slept in her bed last night for the first time. It took about 2 hours to get her to go to sleep and then she woke up every 4 hours to eat and poop. The boys continue to do very well with her. Believe it or not they are already very protective of her. If she starts to fuss and Cody and/or Owen are around, they run over to her and try to make her stop fussing. Cody and Owen think it's funny when she poops. I think they just like saying " Mommy Elle's poopie"!

I started back to work part time last week. I only work the days Chris doesn't have to work. It was so hard leaving her, but I know she is being well taken care of and spoiled by daddy. I'm not sure exactly how long I will continue to work part time, my employer has been wonderful and very supportive of our adoption. They have created an adoption benefit for me and others families that might adopt in the future. Friday they had a baby shower for me...well Elle, and we received some much needed items. I feel so blessed to work with such a great group of friends.

Here are some pictures from the past few days. Elle is growing and starting to "fill out". The past few days I have dressed her in cute little dresses. I love brushing her hair and getting her all dolled up in the mornings. She is the cutest little girl.
