Now that Ella can sit up so well, we have been letting her take a bath in her "Ducky Tub." She absolutely LOVES it! She splashes, squeals, and plays with her rubber ducky.

Ella can sit up!!
It seemed like Ella learned to sit up overnight! One day she couldn't sit up without help, then the next she was a pro! I took her to a playgroup the day after she turned 6 months old, and that is when she sat up by herself for the first time. I suppose that she was trying to impress the other babies with her advanced skills. I know one thing for sure, she certainly impressed her Mommy & Daddy!

Welcome Baby "Whit Whit"
Ella has a cousin!! This week, Brad's sister Jill & her husband Ben welcomed their first child - 1 lb. 7 oz., 12 inch long Whitney Claire Whitaker. We didn't expect Whitney to get here until December, but God had other plans. We are very excited that she is here, and Ella can't wait to show her the ropes! 
Time for "Real" Food...
We waited until Ella turned 6 months old to let her try rice cereal (the traditional first "solid"). Although it doesn't appear so in this picture, it was worth the wait. She has LOVED everything that she has tried so far.

Ella's First Trip to the Zoo
Ella's first trip to the zoo was a few days before she turned 6 monts old. That weekend, Pop, Grammie, Auntie Jill, and Uncle Ben were visiting, so they joined us for a morning at the Nashville Zoo. While they were here, we also celebrated Ella's "Half Birthday." Grammie and Pop brought an adorable cake and party stuff. Ella got 2 adorable outfits as gifts for her "Half Birthday."
Ella's Furry Friends Part 2
Yes, that is our precious cat (Lily) in Ella's crib. I had to take a picture of her before I tossed her out.
Cute 4 Month Pictures
As you can see in the pictures, Ella just keeps getting more and more expressive.

Our first overnight trip with Ella was to Columbus, MS to visit Brad's parents (Grammie & Pop). My mom and sister (Mamaw & Auntie Carly) joined us for a "Pool Party" and cookout - it was so much fun!!
