Ella Update

This week my grandpa came home from Utah. This was the first time he got to meet Ella. She woke right up when he got there. It was a special treat since she spends most of her day sleeping.

Friday I went to a store called Ribbons and Lace to buy some supplies to make bows. Here are a few shots of some of the headbands I made.



I was proud of myself for figuring out how to tie the bows using some instructions I found online.

Sunday was her first day to church. Here she is in an outfit Grammie Cole gave her and I made the bow to match. She looked adorable!

Whenever my sister in law comes to AZ we hit up Ribbons and Lace and she goes crazy. I think it's a popular store for mom's with girls!

Tim and Jennifer said...

p.s. i think she looks just like Matt!

Good job on the bows, Michelle. I think it's cute that Ella matches you too. She's such a cutie. Wish we could come snuggle her cheeks.

Adrienne said...

Adorable! I still haven't figured out those bows- yours turned out so cute. We are excited to see you guys next week and meet little Ella!

Yes Ribbons and Lace is a fun yet OVERWHELMING store!

Melissa said...

Oh I can't wait!! I can't wait to meet this little cutie and to go to Ribbons & Lace with you and make more bows:) I want to take their bow making class, you learn how to make 5 different kinds of bows and make 3 different headbands for $12, not bad? We will have to make plans... Good job on the bows though, they look awesome!

Ooh I love the bows. I can't wait to put my little girl in them. Where did you find the instructions online? I would love to get those from you.

Corynn said...

Aww.. She looks like Matt, I think. Ribbons and Lace does bow classes for 12$ too. I know how to make some of the bows they make there. They are hard to explain in writing otherwise I would help! haha. Your bows look great though! Love it!

You both look so good!! Those bows are adorable. I need to have a girl so you can make me some. :) Glad things are going well. You are so much better than me. I didn't go to church for like 2 months and only then it was just to sacrament meeting. Love you guys!
