Ellie's baptism

Ellie was baptized on Saturday. When Father Terry poured the water over her head, she closed her eyes as though she were at peace.

Ellie is 4 months.

I can't believe my baby is 4 months old. She is growing so fast.

At the CPA football game

The whole family went to the CPA football game Friday night. Katelyn especially loves to run around and have us chase her. She enjoyed watching the cheerleaders and the band. The second picture is of her and Abby. It makes me wonder what they are going to be into when they are teeneagers.

Getting ready for bed

Katelyn and Ellie

Taken at Ellie's 3 month photo shoot. They both looked so happy. I thought it was the perfect shot.

Fun with lipstick

While packing for my weekend in Louisville, I let Katelyn out of my sight for five minutes. When things got a little too quiet, this is what I found in the living room. Katelyn painted herself head to toe in lipstick. She also decided to paint Ellie's toes too.

Making cookies

Katelyn made her first cookies today--sugar cookies in the shapes of stars, hearts and flowers. She had a great time and made a wonderful mess.

Swearing In

Katelyn and Ellie got to see their daddy get re-sworn in today at Juvenile court. Katelyn stole the show, calling out "Daddy" at the end and then pranced down the aisle to find her daddy. Luckily, the ceremony was almost over when she made her debut.

Big Sister/Little Sister

Katelyn loves to play with Ellie. She hugs and kisses her often, if not a little too much. Ellie is such an easy-going baby--always smiling and gurgling.

Katelyn heading to JCC

Katelyn's started a new school today. This is her heading out, carrying her lunch bag and wearing a new shirt from her grandma.

Meeting the family

Uncle Tom and Granddad Tom came for a visit to meet Ellie and to see our new house.

Katelyn

Katelyn is enjoying her new chair. It was her daddy's chair from Greece when he was little.

Snoozing

Ellie looks so peaceful when she is sleeping--a little angel.

Katelyn loves giving Baby Ellie baths

Smiling at Mommy

Ellie gives mommy one of her big, contagious smiles.

Getting ready for our move

Katelyn enjoyed playing in the boxes as we were getting ready for our move.

The Chunk

First Plane Trip

The Coombs Families went to Houston, TX from July 7-10 for cousin Elizabeth Dunning's wedding. It was Ellie's first plane ride. Katelyn danced the night away. I'll post pictures at a later date.

Fourth of July and One month old

We all went to a Fourth of July party at the Crowell's. Katelyn enjoyed swimming in the pool and Ellie just slept as usual. Ellie turned one month old today.

First Camping Trip

Ellie enjoyed her first camping trip where she got to meet her Bibelhauser relatives. Katelyn enjoyed her first jet ski ride.
