Since having Ellen 6 weeks ago, I thought it might be nice to post pictures and updates about little Ellen on a blog as to avoid cluttering the inboxes of friends and family members.
So, how did I come up with the name? Ellen is so little that she can't see too far in front of her and can't distinguish colors too well. That said, she is transfixed by a blurry painting of a pond that we have behind our couch. It's so cute to watch her stare so intently at the painting that we started calling it Ellen's pond...
I've included some of my favorite newborn photos of Ellen and some recent pictures as well. We hired Joy Lyn (http://www.joylynphotography.com/) to shoot some photos of Ellen when she was 8 days old and I think they turned out great.
Some of the more recent photos include pictures with her Nana and several of her napping, which is mostly what she does these days :)
Anyway, welcome! I hope you enjoy seeing photos of Ellen and hearing updates! This weekend is halloween so I'll be sure to post some pictues of Ellen in garb :)
