We survived Ella's first round of vaccines.  She didn't have a fever or exhibit any signs of pain so overall she was a rockstar. Last night, I had her sleep in her bassinet in our bedroom (I wanted to keep an eye on her temperature) and realize she talks in her sleep ALOT!  Throughout the night, I kept thinking she was crying but in fact she was just babbling in her sleep.

Morning Visitors:  Ella's Aunt Mayelle came to visit and got to have breakfast together.

Afternoon Activities: Spent the afternoon trying to get Ella to sleep (I could tell she wanted to sleep but for some reason she just couldn't fall asleep) and was exhausted.  We played with everything and yet she was still so alert!  She's starting to enjoy looking at her mirror and playing in her play mat.

Dinner:  Enjoyed a lovely time with Leah and Moriah. Can't wait for our next dinner date.
