Quality Time

ellie loves to cuddle with grandma melanson. she actually discovered her favorite position with grandma. ellie loves to lay against our shoulder. it nearly guarantees a great nap- boy, ellie is going to be sad when grandma leaves!

actually, ellie won't be the only one who is sad with grandma melanson gone. it has been so wonderful having her here. not only is my mom an incredible support and resource with the birth of our first baby; but she has also been cooking, cleaning, doing the laundry, and so much more. it will be really difficult having her gone, but we look forward to when she will return with grandpa melanson in may for her blessing.

this is from ellie's first bath at home. while not her favorite thing in the world, ellie is getting better at them. last night we gave her one last bath with grandma melanson helping and having todd help, too. she actually didn't cry that much. she might actually like them once she can get into the warm water.

todd is reading miss spider to ellie. he read to her while i was pregnant many nights. i have loved and collected children's books since i was a teenager. it is wonderful to finally be using them with our own baby.
