Just in case you were bored....

Ellie has finally started taking naps during the day - which was the perfect opportunity for mono, strep AND scarlet fever to set in Zoë's tiny body.

Her face pretty much says it all...

But before all the crazy, I did have time to make these yummy chocolate dipped cake leprechaun hats. They looked waaay better on another site...but... beggars can't be choosers right???
Our friend IS from Ireland. He has the coolest accent and dressed up as a leprechaun and came over and gave the kids gold chocolate coins. They were terrified. They thought that now he was a leprechaun, he would come in and mess our house up.
Happier days :)

We have had time to be more ethnically minded though.
She saw a lady with them on and was obsessed with looking just as beautiful.
She can pull it off actually.
Since Zoë can't run around, she watches a lot of movies. Inevitably they are Barbie ones, and Emmett...well...he hates them.
Ellie is super chubby and super cute.
I can't believe she is 12 lbs already!

Oxygen

Ellie is off of oxygen!! As of today, the oxygen tanks are gone.
I am still getting used to freely walking around the house.
I'm so so SO glad she is breathing better.
Ellie can't be without her binkie
Emmett is WAY into baseball right now.
He practices for an hour at least a day.
This is what Z looks like when Emmett tries to teach her how to throw the ball so he can hit it.
And this is what E looks like
