Cruising Around...

9 Months

Ellie is 9 months this Friday...I don't have any new photos because she's to busy trying to take her first steps (she has actually has taken 5 step in a row) but I do have two new videos.

Also, a few Saturdays back it has warmed up so we took Ellie to Rail Road park where she experienced her first swing. Willie was a little agressive on the pushing, but I think she still enjoyed it! The other video is just her in the bath tub, but it's one of the only times where she is somewhat still/confined for any length of time now. Enjoy!

Yummy...my first Cookie

In true Faulkner Fashion...the sweet "teeth" have developed!

Eloise's Christmas Adventures!

Merry Christmas!

Here we Come Huntsville!

So, this weekend we headed off to Huntsville (Huntsvegas...as we like to call it) for a road trip.

Our mission: 1) To visit our friends and Ellie's Godfather Sam and his wife Leslie 2) to go the Christmas Village I kept hearing such great things about.

After eating lunch and hanging out for a bit Sam and Leslie gave Ellie her first Christmas Ornament (so special!). Then after visiting the Christmas Village with Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, reindeer, elves, a snowman, a ginger bread man....and on and on....we made the journey home. Thanks for a wonderful visit to Huntsvegas Sam and Leslie!
