So big...so adorable

Ella's before and After with her hair cut

Things in the Carlin household have been very busy as we are preparing for Ella's first birthday. We had a lazy Sunday a couple of weeks ago and couldn't figure out what to do...so we went to the local Aquarium. Ella loved it so much we bought a year pass and can't wait to take her back to see her fish friends. Ella also saw a very large snow for the first time and was excited. IF we could find snow pants to fit her she would have gotten to play it it, but she is still too tiny and they just fall off. Ella recently had her one year photo shoot at the pictures turned out so amazing. It is going to be hard to choose what to print off. To prepare for her close up Ella had her first haircut. She now has little bangs that make her look so grown up. Ella has gone from sometimes taking steps to being a walker. It is a rare day in this house that Ella crawls. She can sign more and please. She has also said her first words, hiiiiii and byeeeebyeee...she knows what they mean to as she says them as she first sees you and waves, or as you leave and again she waves.
