Playing Catch Up

Every time I get on the computer I usually look to see if anyone has posted a new blog and it reminds me how I haven't blogged in awhile. (by the way just sneezed and peed a little...perks of having babies...God bless Kegel exercises) As I was saying I have been procrastinating blogging because I feel like I have had nothing to say as of late. But know I have lots of little treasures to share with you all.

First Ruby is 9 months



This girl doesn't sit still ever. She loves her Cousin Liv and loves being Liv's little puppy dog following her all over the house. She also loves all food that is presented to her. She especially loves Chobani yogurt but who doesn't. If only she would get more teeth then her world would be changed forever with all the different foods out there.

Secondly

Bryce had a two week break between his second and third internships so we decided to go to the Oregon Coast for a few days.  It was way fun even though it rained on us the whole time. We stayed in Tillamook and took day trips up and down the Coast. We visited the beach once and lasted maybe 15 minutes before turning back cause it was so cold and windy. We went to Ripley's believe it or not which is one of my favorite places to visit. We also went to Astoria and climbed the column. We also visited the aquarium in Newport and my favorite part of the trip was finding a Baby Gap outlet. We also Visited the Tillamook cheese factory and ate our way through many cheese samples and had ourselves some delicious ice cream. I think out of the whole trip Ruby enjoyed playing in our hotel room. Judge us if you want for letting our child play all over the floor but it allowed some much needed rest.






I won't lie I had no desire to even try to look remotely attractive  during our  entire trip so bare with me









and finally
This pregnancy has been a lot different then my first.  Well for one thing my nausea and constant throwing up that I had with Ruby is almost non existent this pregnancy.  I have only thrown up once while I was in the shower after eating left over Chinese. BIG. MISTAKE.
Also this pregnancy is going by way fast. I"m already in my second trimester and at the end of the month we find out what we are having. I think its a boy. I guess we will just have to see.
I'm definantly showing way faster than last time. I already have a very protruding belly and have broken out the maternity clothes. Got to love maternity garment bottoms they are a life saver. 

So I think your all caught up on whats happened the past couple months with the Ellgens. I leave you with some random pictures of Ruby cause lets be honest thats all you really care about.

  1. Okay, first in spite of not trying to look attractive on your trip you are seriously gorgeous. Your skin looks great and the rosiness of your checks are lovely. For real. I don't just say things to flatter. You have lovely skin.

    What a fun trip! And I'm happy to hear this pregnancy is going smoother for you. Leftover Chinese....sounds yucky, but of all the places to throw up the shower was probably my favorite.

    Ruby is such a cutie! Love the fun pics.

  2. After our phone conversation I got on here to see if you'd posted pictures of the easter dress. Can't wait to see it. No pressure...
