Just a little update

Wow, time does fly doesn't it? Ella's 8 month check up is coming up shortly (only one week!) and Ville's classes have finally come to an end. He only has a summer consultation project left to do (6 weeks at a company) and he is finished! September 14th to be exact.

Ella is crawling, or well armying as we say it. She gets up on her hands and knees and rocks back and forth and even sticks her butt in the air, but to move it's all about the army crawl. She manages to make it across our rather large living room in about 10 seconds flat! We finally sucked it up and installed some safety gates... Oh how mom was hoping we wouldn't have to do that until we moved to the next flat!

Ella has been dragged all over (as usual); from France to Finland to Royal Ascot (the horse race from My Fair Lady) and the Henley Royal Regatta (famous rowing races). She certainly has seen a ton in her short life! I can't decide if she is going to become enamoured with it and want to travel extensively when she gets older, or if she will be sick of travelling and want to be a homebody!

She has two bottom teeth, with two more on the way.

We can't believe how big our little girl is getting! We saw a one week old baby the other day and just couldn't believe how tiny she was! It seems like Ella was never that small.

Missing you all, hope you enjoy the pictures! I think I posted a good 20 or more.

Liz, Ville and Ella

I LOVED all the pictures! She is adorable, and getting so big! I particularly love the swim pictures. You guys must have a blast in the pool together with all those other moms and babies.
