After the appt., we went straight to Addie's princess birthday party. Addie wore her Cindrella outfit and was the belle of the ball!
Tracy did an awesome job with the party and made this very pretty princess cake!
Addie's tiara in falling in her eyes, oh the problems with being a princess!
After the party, we literally threw everything into the car and headed down to Seabrook for the weekend with the neighbors. The weather was amazing all weekend and all the adults and kids had so much fun. We had a Hawaiian theme dinner hence the Hawaiian clothes in the picture above.
The big hit was the outdoor pool, Ella had so much splashing around. The water was a little chilly at first so she hung onto Mike very tightly but then once she realized it was like her bath, she had a great time!
Ella and Wesley loving the splash pool. How cute are these two little ones in their bathing suits! Of course, our little fair skin child always had to have her hat on which she actually did really well keeping it on.
Our first child also had a great time at her favorite place, the beach! She chased a million tennis balls into the ocean and loved having all the little kids around because they gave her lots of treats and left lots of food laying around for her! She did great actually with the kids and was so tired by the end of the day, she went to bed early with the kids!
We all love the beach so much, the weekend was so fun but went by way too quickly! The big news of the weekend was that Ella actually started officially crawling. As I have mentioned before, she has been so close for such a long time and on Sunday at the beach, she made her first move!! Everyone was watching and cheering her on so it was such a fun moment! It must be something about Seabrook because she rolled over for the first time there as well!!
Before we headed home on Sunday, we had a big lunch at the beach club with everyone. The kids did great and it was a great way to end the weekend. I also had to include this adorable picture of sisters, Addie and Wesley.
So, obivously the big news is now that Ella is crawling, she is all over the place so it's time to babyproof the house. She does this funny crawl, where she picks up her right leg almost in a walking position and crawls with her left. It looks funny but she gets around quickly! Of course, she goes after everything she shouldn't, cords, outlets, etc! But it is fun to see her get around since we didn't know if she would ever crawl! I will try and post a video we took of her crawling but the video option on the blog hasn't been working for me lately so it may not work.
We are off to see Kelly get married next weekend and can't wait to see a lot of the Hennessy side of the family and have them meet Ella!
