My Ellianna Marie

It's 7:30am and I've been up since 5:45am, trying to figure out why the right side of my back hurts.  I'm not sure if it's just pregnancy, or if I maybe overexerted myself a bit during a back workout earlier this week.  Regardless, I'm now snacking on a bowl of cereal while I browse the internet for recipes and sit here with Lady Hinton practicing karate in my uterus.

Hopefully I start to feel tired again soon.  I have to work for inventory at 4 until probably 11 or midnight tonight...

Speaking of browsing for recipes, I've found an awesome digital cookbook: YUMPRINT.  It's extremely easy to use, although sometimes I find the OCD in me wishes it were easier to re-organize recipes once I've found them.  I've been using it for over a month now and love how it not only stores all of my online recipes in one spot, but it also links each of them back to the original page where I first discovered them.  This comes in really handy when I forget to utilize my "Bookmarks" to save cooking blogs.

And just in case you were wondering, my new niece was born 6 days ago.  Her name is Ellianna Marie and she is the most precious little lady ever!
Proud Daddy Tim!!
Lovey-dovey time with Mommy (Courtney).

Fresh out of the womb snuggling with Laura! (Who is the BEST photo-documenter!)
Checking out the new environment!

Relaxing with Uncle Ike the next day. 

4 Days old now and already wiping out Poppa...

and Nana!


But Uncle Ike has enough energy to keep up with me!
I could just stare at her for hours….

Actually, I do.  And Mom (Nana) sent me a video of her too!  I think I've watched it at least twenty times.  It's so adorable.  She's just tries to suck on everything and makes a little squeaky noise.  I could just smooch her forever!!

  1. Imaging you 'organizing and reorganizing' your recipes is similar to your dad sorting pictures on Sunday afternoons...LOL!!
