Jackson-induced exhaustion

We had another sonogram today (Baby Bean is perfect and I'm hoping to post a summary and a picture tomorrow) so Hillary watched Miss Ellie for us (THANK YOU, HILLARY!). Ellie took a little nap and then enjoyed playing with Jackson. It's hard to imagine, but I think Jackson had even more energy than normal and, apparently, just trying to keep up with him wore Ellie out! We stopped at the grocery store on the way home and Ellie zonked out on the 2 minute drive home. Normally, she wakes up when I take her out of her carseat, but today, she opened her eyes, looked around, and passed out again. After a few failed attempts to wake her, I let her take a little snooze on the couch. Now I know what to do with Ellie when she has extra energy that she needs to burn off. ;-)

So funny! Keeping Ellie was a pleasure and I look forward to having her more the closer we get to Fritz arriving:) Thanks for bringing her and for the delicious and healthy cookies!

How sweet!!! She really had a good time! :) Nothing better than a little nap after a big day. And I'm not sure if anyone let you know this, but Ellie is looking especially adorable in that outfit!

Fritz - I'm loving that name, Hillary! Could we borrow Jackson for the 3 dogs we're taking care of? Back to Ellie and Fritz, pretty soon Ellie will be wearing Fritz out. We're sure they will be a real treat!
