Another Milestone!!!

On Sunday Ellie got up in the middle of the floor and took a few steps. I squealed and she enjoyed that so she did it again. Brian and I knew that it wouldn't be long before she could walk longer distances. This morning it happened. Brian was able to capture it on video. She was being a stinker yesterday and crawled every time we tried to get her on video. I am so excited to see her new accomplishment.

Ellie is ONE!!!

Ellie turned one on May 28th. We kept her party small. For dinner we had spaghetti and for her birthday treat Mommy made chocolate chip cookie treasure cupcakes (yummy!!!). We had Grandpa & Grandma Kinghorn, Aunt Lauren, Nana & Poppy and Aunt Jenna join us via our webcams on both of our computers. It was a lot of fun.

We're going to have a boy

The ultra sound seemed pretty conclusive. We're expecting a boy on August 27th.

March 2009 Slideshow

Twinkle Twinkle

While Daddy is away in Tennessee, Ellie decided to start playing along when I sing to her. I told Daddy what she did and he wanted me to record it. So here is Ellie moving to Twinkle Twinkle. Maybe next time she'll be singing it...

Ellie has started standing up on her own.

We recorded this video on Feb. 18th, 2009.

Ellie's Funny Faces

I gave Ellie two new flavors today and it was very entertaining. The first was carrots, broccoli, and cheese. The other was turkey and rice with tomato. Brian and I laughed and laughed at these videos. We had to share them. I hope Ellie grows up with a sense of humor and is able to laugh at herself. Enjoy...
Broccoli, Carrots and Cheese


Turkey and Rice

Ellie started crawling today

Ellie decided she needed to share the spotlight with President Obama today, so she started crawling during the inauguration. She didn't seem to want to do it when we had the camera out, but we finally got her going for my shoes.

November Slideshow

Our Girl's

Ellie is starting to be a lot more interactive and fun. We love her laugh. Lexi got a new bike from Ambucks. So here are a couple of videos of them.

Brian and I went to Detroit this weekend and shared a hotel room with our friends. We went to the Temple the next day. While we were waiting for them to arrive, we went swimming. We thought that what Ellie did when she was in the pool was so fun we wanted to share it. I think we truly have ourselves a water baby. She is definitely Brian's daughter. I can't wait to get her in the ocean.

October Slide Show

I have been tagged.

Chole tagged me. I am not sure how we are linked. We are sisters in the Gospel, were in Battle Creek together in our youth, and I hung out with Robert at KCC.

1. I enjoy cutting finger and toe nails. Clean toes and fingers make me feel better.
2. I am still afraid of the dark. I run up the stairs from the basement because I feel that the boogey man will get me.
3. I enjoy reality t.v.
4. It is my goal to scare Brian really good because he gets me all of the time. I have had to be really creative.
5. I took an incomplete in a class and my instructor passed away.
6. I think that the older I get the more uptight I become. It will be interesting how I'll be when my girl's are older.
7. I like to pull on my eyebrows. No big deal they are huge!

I tag Emily, Jessica, Sonya, Jennifer, Tiffany, Renee, and Sam.
