The ups and downs

The life of baseball is full of so many types of ups and downs. There is the actual movement of the player and there are up days and down days. Then there are the ups and downs of your regular life... All of these we have experienced and none of the downs are much fun. Thankfully we can be certain that the downs will pass and they always make the ups so much sweeter ;)

Right now we are currently planning a move. We were blessed with a wonderful couple who let us live in their main house (while they lived in their basement) however; the lady of the house has a small (but extremely important) nasty habit of smoking and its affecting poor Ella. Thus, we decided to move. Tomorrow we start the move to downtown providence. 

We are going to be living in a loft style apartment and I'm actually kinda excited about the change. Although it will be much more costly, I'm hoping it will make up for the fact that I won't have to drive anywhere but the field!  Literally, everything is in walking distance!  Ill make sure to post pics soon (and hopefully soon isn't another month from now;)

We recently had our first family pics taken (sense Ella's birth) and just love the photographers!  They did an outstanding job!!  Man, how fast that little girl is growing!

Ella will be 7 months on the 29th, and I'm trying not to cry as I type this!  I literally feel like I just brought her home from the hospital a month ago!  She just loves to play, she loves animals and she loves her time with her daddy!  We are both missing him right now; as he is on a 8 game road trip :( 

Our special treat this week was that the Bertettas and Booyes were here on vacation so we got to spend Wednesday with them and Ella and I drove up again tonight to see them one more time before they head home. Ella just loves her auntie Alisha and uncle Jared and just love love loves her BFF van!
