Fresh Milk

We gave Ellie some of the fresh milk from Carlton Farms and we're trying to figure out if she liked it or not...

Y'all Come Back Now, Ya Hear?

This past Friday, we went to Carlton Farms to see some animals and buy some fresh milk and eggs.

Easter Sunday

C'mon now, how cute is Ellie's Easter dress?!?!?!?!?

Raindrops On Roses And Whiskers On Kittens....

These are a few of Ellie's favorite things:

Taking her socks off.

Playing with the wind chimes.

Riding on Daddy's shoulders.

The Hunt Is On!

The park near where we live had a free Easter Egg Hunt the weekend before Easter. Only about a bazillion people showed up.

Ellie was so distracted by all the people running after eggs that I had to pick up a few for her otherwise she would have come away empty handed. I only had to push over two toddlers to get some for her.

In Like A Lion

Supposedly, March is "in like a lion, out like a lamb".

On March 1st during the 11:00 am service at Buckhead Church it started snowing. Of course, we took Ellie outside to see what she would think about it. I think it ended up being 4 - 6" in the Buckhead area.

Ellie's First Birthday

Well, the downside of playing at a park with a million other kids is that you can pick up pink eye. That's exactly what happened. Ellie had pink eye for her first birthday so it just ended up being us, the grandparents and our friend Katie for the party.

Ellie had a great time and really enjoyed her sugar-free banana cake. We actually had to help her get messy.

The Park

So, there is this AMAZING new park just a half mile from where we live. We love to take Ellie there whenever we get a chance. She loves the slides!

Please stay on the line. Your call will be answered in the order....

Ok, so it's been 3 months since our last post. We're finally getting some breathing room to get some blog updates going again.

Instead of giving you some hold music, here are some hold pictures:

Ellie And Santa - Version 1.0

Ok, to be honest, I kinda wanted Ellie to be crying and squirming to escape in her picture with Santa. But, it turned out to be a really cute picture. Merry Christmas!

Ellie's Mad Standing Skills

Check out Ellie's mad standing skills....even when she can't see.

CrossFit Babies

Back in September, I got certified as a CrossFit trainer and have recently started training some at CrossFit Garage. Sabina and Ellie come with me as well. Now, there is CrossFit for adults, CrossFit for kids, and now I think Ellie is ready to start CrossFit for babies. She seems to have mastered the rings already.

A Christmas Story retold...

All I gotta say is that it was really cold outside...

I really don't think she could put her arms down.
When we went outside, I then put two blankets on her. First time mom right here...

Feel free to stare...

She gets cuter by the second.

Trimming The Tree

Ellie loves lights so we wanted to turn them on as soon as they were on the tree. Plus, the whole having a tree in the house thing was new for her as well.

What Could Be Cheaper Than Walmart?

Well, Home Depot. This amazing tree was $24 at Home Depot! All three of us went to pick out the Griswold...I mean Mazac family Christmas tree. I still can't believe that it was only $24.

Christmas Service At Buckhead Church

Ellie was a little bit more into the Christmas spirit with her outfit for church than Sabina and I were. Maybe she wanted to dress up because she turned 10 months old today.

Unfortunate Incident

A camera was setup to capture Ellie in her natural habitat. Unfortunately, she spotted the camera and eventually came over and took out the videographer.

Disclosure: No actual humans, animals, equipment, or space creatures were harmed filming this video.

A Pick Or A Scratch?

What do you think? Is it a pick or a scratch?



Sorry Ellie. I promise that I will remove it when you get older.

Something Different

Ok, how about some different pictures that don't necessarily have a smile in them?
