Introducing Ella Grace
Isn't she a beauty? She looks exactly like her big sister Lily did four years ago! Yes, Grandma got lots of snuggle time with both her little Minnesota sweethearts!
As all babies do, Ella made her presence known, but only when she was hungry! Here she is with her beautiful mother!
Big sister Lily is a wonderful help. We can tell she adores little Ella! Lily was being a bit silly this weekend and put this face on instead of her smiley face whenever the camera was pointed her way!
Yes, I let Grandpa have some snuggle time too!
And Aunt Carol would have protested mightily if she hadn't gotten her turn in too!
Aunt Joanne and Jan let us have all the snuggle time, so we had to settle for a picture of the two of them together!
Daddy spent all of his time running around taking care of all of us and playing with Lily.
We had a wonderful weekend, but we're very tired from all the driving. I took a quick peek at some of the blogs I follow, and posted a few comments. I feel like such a slacker when I look at all the wonderful posts, but I got a little sidetracked over the past couple of weeks. Carol asked me to make receiving blankets for a baby shower a week ago. I decided that Lily and Ella needed sister blankets. Before I knew it, two weeks had gone by with very little tatting done! I'll have to get back in to the swing of things this week. For now, I'm all done in, so I'm heading off to bed. You know what they say... early to bed, early to rise... zzzzz...

OH, Ella is absolutely a beautiful baby! Those are some precious family photos of yours. They made my heart smile warmly! :) You have a lovely family, Diane!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations GrandMa Diane. A lovely name for a sweet baby.
ReplyDeleteYou got sidetracked for a wonderful reason, so take your time to come back to your tatting, :-)
Little Ella is beautiful. We have three babies from Nov last year to just a month back. Children at that age tend to make faces - we are going through a phase with the 5-yr-old DNc (after her brother finished his).
ReplyDeleteLittle Ella is so beautiful, as are the rest of your family members! Congratulations on the newest addition!
ReplyDeleteOh she IS beautiful! As are all the family members. What a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet she looks -- and looks like she has a good set of lungs as well! You're a lucky woman, Diane.
ReplyDeleteElla is beautiful and looks so perfect! I can tell how happy Lilly is too. You have a very nice family. Of course you do, they came from the two of you!
ReplyDeleteElla was my favorite grandmother's name. She is a beautiful baby and big sister Lilly, well...being a big sister is serious business. She's just letting you know she is a responsible little girl. LOL!

ReplyDeleteOh my she is lovely, I am so jealous of you and your lovely granddaughter.
ReplyDeletemmm! shouldn't be, grandson will be lovely too.
Both Lily and Ella are beautiful. Your a lucky GrandMa. Thank you for sharing pictures of your family.
ReplyDeleteNot much into the blog thing, as I hate to type (some computer guy, huh), but just wanted to congratulate you on your new granddaughter! Send my love to all!
