Frey Family: I give up...theres no good way to do this!

I just discovered this place called Cheeky Monkeys its in Cambridge. Its so much fun!! We went last week with Lula, Toby, and Harriet. Ella loves to climb around all day long. We will have to take our friends Xander and Ethan when they come to visit. They will love it!!!!

I think if I let her Ella would climb back and forth in this tunnel all day long.

She walked across this wobbly bridge all by herself. She was quite proud of herself and so was I.

trapped!!!

playing in the balls!!

Cuddles for dadda.....Im so sleepy!!

We took Ella to the Science Museum in London last Saturday. It was crazy packed, but she had a good time. She liked these big blocks. We are planning on taking Ethan there when he comes next August. We will go during the week so its not so busy!!!

Buckingham Palace Tennis courts. We were hoping to see some royalty playing but no such luck

Garden in London

We found a place like pinkberry in London! We are so excited too bad its incredible expensive that cup cost up almost 10 dollars, but worth every cent :-P

I'm too cute for my own good!!!

Ella got tubes put in on March 4th. We went to the hospital bright and early. The procedure took about 30 minutes. She did great! I was able to go see her in the recovery room. She was so drugged up it was awful. They wouldn't let me nurse her right away :-( The doc wanted her to wake up a little bit more. She was screaming, crying, and had no head control it made me cry. They finally let me nurse her and the nurse looked at me and said, "WOW, the joys of breastfeeding her heart rate is way down now!" That made me feel so good to know that it was only going to be me to settle my little girl. We left the hospital about 30 minutes after being in the recovery and headed home. Ella would sleep for about 5 minutes and then just scream for 5 all the way home. When we finally got home I put her to bed and she slept for about 3 hours. When she woke up she was normal Ella. We even headed over to Lula's to play for awhile. It was amazing how quickly she came around and was perfect again. The only evidence that she had something done was a little blood in her ears.

She loves to open and close this little toy and put her shapes in. We are working on her putting them through their holes.

This is one of my new favorite pictures!

I just wanted to get you up to date on all things Ella!!! She loves to EAT!!! She is eating more and more these days. * She loves to laugh * she can sign more, duck, eat, and her favorite Choo-Choo (we just need to work on using them all the time) * She is just over 20lb * She's 29.5" long *She is sleeping through the night on a regular basis * She loves to go outside and play * She really loves book!! We read 10 little ladybugs at least 10 times a day * She is talking more and more each day.
