More Milestones for Ellen!

Recently, Ellen has celebrated a number of "firsts" ...

Her first trip out of state: We went to Iowa for my cousin Cori's wedding. Ellen did a great job during the 5-hour car ride and had a blast when we finally got there. EVB loved the hotel (especially the elelvator!) and had the time of her life dancing at the reception.

Ellen's only nap of the weekend: a 20-minute snooze as we traveled through southern Minnesota.

Enjoying a little Subway for lunch in the hotel.

Her first movie in a movie theater: Ellen and Mommy went to see "Winnie the Pooh" at the Riverview Theater. Ellen was too tiny to sit in her own chair, so she snuggled with mommy. She paid attention the entire time and liked it so much that she cried when it was over!

The photo is a bit dark, but this is the back of Ellen's little head as she anxiously waits for the movie to start.

After the movie, Ellen and Mommy enjoyed some mac & cheese at Noodles & Company.

Her first night in a big girl bed: That's right, Ellen has moved out of her crib and her old room and into a new big-girl room! Ellen has done a great job settling into her new digs while we get her old room ready for the baby.

Ellen's new room!
