So Ella's first week of daycare went very well, except for the cold she has...and the cold she gave me. I knew it was going to happen so why not get it over with the first week right?.....oh i'm sure there will be more.

So my friend is getting married tomarrow and Steve, Ella, Shadow(the dog) and I have started the very, very, very long trip up north to God's country (as Ella's Dr. likes to call it). Yes we have made it half way through our 12 hour journey to Thief River Falls, Mn. wish us luck on Sunday when we make the 12 hour trip back to Ottumwa in one day...ugg

This past week has been a big week for us. I started work last Wednesday and Ella went to daycare for the first time. It was really hard for me to drop her off that morning. I brought her to daycare about an hour before I had to be at work and I sat there with her for about 40 min. After Ella fell asleep in Vanessa's (her daycare lady) arms I left. She did fine at daycare and I somehow made it through as well. I'm thinking it was harder for me than her...

Ella has also rolled over! It was a little bitter sweet moment. Steve and I were trying to put Ella down for bed and she kept rolling over and once she rolled over it would be quiet for a bit and then she would start crying and we'd have to go in and flip her back over. So, we are very proud of her new trick and we're waiting to see it happen during the day!
