Where did it go? We got in the house and obviously settled in... so much that I forgot to write! OR oh yeah, I forgot... I started working full time again in January. That's the same time I stopped blogging! Yep, that's it.
Don't read this blog if you don't care about baby milestones... you'll find it B O R I N G !
Okay- so catch up time! First on Ella! I write in my journal a lot (well more than blogging) so I can thankfully look up and see what my little girlie did during each of these months.
