It's Official!

I am proud to announce that we have a baby who is sleeping through the whole entire night!!!! She is 7 weeks old! How lucky am I? I was having a very difficult time getting up a couple of times a night with Elle since I was getting a full nights sleep while I was pregnant and now that she is sleeping all night long, I now feel like a real person! No more sleep deprivation. It is a wonderful feeling to get some good sleep, and you really do take that for grated when you are getting good sleep!

Thank you baby Ellie for being such a wonderful baby and a super sleeper!
(We are going in for Ellie's 2 month appointment today even though she will be 2 months next week!) Let's see how much she has grown!

Elle's Baby Blessing

On Sunday, Regan blessed Elle Michelle Fackrell. It was so amazing to watch my husband bless our baby in church. I just feel so blessed to have a huband that is able to use his priesthood. This sacrement meeting was extra special for everyone who attended because it was also the Primary Program. Riley played a solo on his violin in front of the whole congregation. He played I am a Child Of God and he played it SO well! I couldn't believe that he didn't freak out under all of that pressure! He and I had a violin lesson everyday ever since Elle was born, and I even bribed him with a Walle Leapster Game if he memorized it; which he did!!! I couldn't have been a prouder mom with my baby being blessed and my little boy playing his violin!

Elle looked gorgeous in her blessing dress. My mom and I picked it out a few weeks earlier because that is my mom's tradition; buy the blessing dress. Anyway, we had everyone over to our home for dinner afterwards and it was great to see the family & friends support system we have.

I got the coolest picture of everyone who was in the circle blessing Elle! I got on top of our 2nd floor landing and took a picture of Regan, my dad, my brother and my new brother in law with Elle in the middle!

I am so grateful for a new little girl in our family!

Super Capes!

Last week, I made a SuperMan/Batman and Supergirl/Crown capes for Riley and Sunny at Enrichment. They were going to be for Christmas, but when Riley and Sunny found where I had hid them, I realized that they would not make it until Christmas! So, ever since then, they have worn these capes and pretended to be super heros all over the place! At least the 4 hours I spent on them has not gone to waist! Don't they look SO cute in these capes?
