The Joys of Teething!

This week has been so busy. I'm trying to get in as many hours as I can working from home and to make things busier, Ella is teething. It's like everything I knew has changed. She used to be a great napper... not any more. She naps for 20-30 minutes in the morning & another in the morning and is bright eyed and ready to go when she wakes up.

I can tell her gums hurt her because she can't get her fingers out of her mouth. She has a toys that she loves to put in her mouth but what she loves most of all is mommy's fingers. She is crabby and very needy. I have given her infant Tylenol but I'm afraid I am drugging her! I'm trying to only give it to her when she is really fussy and really needs a nap.

Last Saturday was my 25th birthday. I love birthdays! It is something else to be thankful for - another year of life! Since having Ella I really know how important birthdays are for mommy's. I'm so thankful for my mom and I really feel it more now!!


My Aunt Paula came over to babysit while Mark & I went out with friends. We went to Dave and Buster's. I had never been... we had a blast!! Air hockey is our favorite game to play together. I don't ever want him to let me win. We are very competitive.

Over all it was a good week... Here are some pictures.







I have decided to start a photography business. Right now it's very small... I don't have a great camera (it's a really good camera just not for professional pictures) and I'm still learning how to get good lighting, poses, etc. I would like to start off with family and friends to get a portfolio started and eventually make some money. The thing is I need to make money to get a new camera... anyway, check out my photography blog (most of the pictures you see here will be there but, support is nice!)
