First Outings

Eliana had her first official outing (besides her two week doctor appt) this past Saturday at 3 weeks, 1 day old. Ellie joined Dad and Mom at Target where they got some breastfeeding and baby supplies. Ellie slept the whole time.

Eliana's busy weekend continued as she attended church for the first time. Mom and Dad were excited to take her to church, but opted for the church in Humble instead of their regular church in Houston since it is closer. It was nice, but Mom and Dad are looking forward to introducing Ellie to St. Anne's. Ellie continued her busy day by making her first trip to Grandma's house. Eliana's great-grandmother passed away on Valentine's Day,  so much of Mom's extended family was in town for her funeral this past Monday. Ellie was excited to meet and greet great uncles and aunts, and second cousins. Eliana did not get the chance to meet her great-grandmother, but Gammy was aware of Ellie's  birth, and did get to see pictures and a video of her right after she was born. We will all miss Gammy dearly.

  1. Ellie is such a beautiful baby. I'm glad we were able to visit, but sad about the occasion.

  2. Yes, it was wonderful to have the family all together in my house -- first time in a very long time! Bill said he thought the last time he was here was in '89 when Mama died, and Zack said he remembered sleeping on my couch as a kid with Chicken Pox! Long time!
