Nana visits Ella

Ella got to meet a lot of the family over the last month. Too bad she won't remember any of the visits. But we have lots of pictures to prove to her.

Jessica makes a visit

Jessica gave for a weekend visit to see Ella and to play with the ever-playing Luka.

Ella smiles.

Here's Ella with a nice smile. Over the last couple of weeks she has been smiling more and more. She is still eating very well and sleeping through the night is getting better and better.

Mummu & Pappa come for a visit.

Ella and Luka enjoyed the visit from Mummu and Pappa. Jason also needed Pappa's help on some "small" house projects which turned out to be a little larger than expected. Everyone had a fun time!

Luka experiments

Luka is really good friends with the girl next door (also three). The other night she showed him how cool it is to get into mom's make-up purse and put some lipstick on, well, pretty much all over the face. So, today Luka had a brilliant idea: Wouldn't black marker leave an even more impressive mark than lipstick?

Little peapod

She was snug and warm and sleepy all night...

Sibling love

Awww..isn't this cute...

Luka the Spiderman

Luka is in action! He pretty much ran all night from house to house collecting an impressive amount of goodies in his basket.

Happy Halloween from the Hertlings

It's scary how well the mullet suits Jason...
