Ellie is Walking!!!

She has taken her first steps (and many more). It is so funny to me how fast Ellie changes and learns new tricks. One day we are trying with all our might to coax her to just let go and take a few steps and the next day, completely on her own, she pushing herself up on two feet and taking off. Now she is still VERY VERY wobbly but it is a start. And we are very proud of our little walker.

Auburn is off to a great start - Ellie had a rough first football season so we are happy to see the Tigers doing great this year. Last year I was way too sleep deprived to even notice (and mike was too if you can believe that) but now that we are sleeping thru the night it would have been hard to have another terrible football season so we are pleasantly suprised and cautiously optimistic for our Tigers- War Eagle. As you can see Ellie already dresses for football saturday and we are hoping that any day now she will be saying war eagle- ha.

As for the move, the departure date is October 19. MIke is going soon to RI to find us a place to live- me being the control freak that I am have given specific instructions as to what we are looking for and I have all the faith in the world that he will find us the perfect place. We are really really excited about the move eventhough we wil miss all the great friends we have made in Oklahoma- good news is we will be back in a year!
no more news for now- hope all is well- Love Amy

Ellie playing in the grass- not quite sure what she thinks (sorry pics out of order) Playing with her farm animals- thanks Aunt Jennifer

Future Auburn Cheerleader- War Eagle!!
Cheering for the Auburn Tigers with her Daddy- perfect saturday.

My three favorite things in the whole world- Ellie, Mike and Brimley!!!

Enjoys the carousel when sitting next to daddy (see below)

Still happy

Not so happy when we tried to put her on her own animal to ride!!!!

loves the zoo- except I think she enjoys the people watching more than watching the animals.
