Ahhh... Sundays

Sundays are my favorite and also my craziest day. It can be a pretty hard day for Elli, because she misses her morning nap, but usually she makes up for it in the afternoon, and I can sneak in a nap too! Today has been just such a day. I just woke up from two dreamy hours (wow!) to a quiet house as Elli and her daddy are still snoozing away. It feels so peaceful!

We're still looking for a church here, which is fun to try all kinds of new churches, but also frustrating, because we are anxious to get involved and meet people but know that it's important to take our time and pray for God's guidance. We are trying to figure out the balance between finding a place to serve and a place to be fed.

We had a nice relaxing Saturday, playing in the pool and playing with Elli! Daniel brought some work home, so Elli and I got out of his way for a few hours and had a girl's date to Target (one of my favorite places). We found some adorable headbands and tops for her. Seriously, I don't even have to buy anything, but I love to walk through that store! I think it has to do with the color organization. It's almost like looking through a Martha Stewart Living magazine.

In the morning, Elli woke up to eat, and then fell right back asleep in my arms (unusual for her). I thought about waking her up so we could "stay on schedule" (I can be way too obsessed with staying on our schedule), but I'm so glad I decided to let her cuddle up with her daddy. She slept another twenty minutes or so, and when I came back in to check on her, she was snuggling in her daddy's arms, sweet as could be. They melt my heart!
After our trip to Target (and swinging by Sonic to get some cranberry limeades... yum!), Elli was happy to be back with her daddy! I love these pictures! She reached out to hold his hand!
