A weekend away
So Ella did fine... and so did I. :) Once we landed in Memphis for our connection I was pretty relaxed and knew my in-laws were fully capable of taking care of Ella as well as surviving themselves.
I got this photo after we landed in Orlando with the caption "nite nite mom and dad".
What's funny about this is she's in her pj's... and her car seat! I thought, well I know they drove Grant around a lot at night to get him to sleep so maybe they did the same for Ella. Sure enough, apparently they took LOTS of drives over the weekend. When ever they could not get her to stop crying they hoped in the car! Not a bad game plan I have to say.
Also, after a little bit she started taking a bottle from them, whether asleep or awake so that was great.
Saturday morning as I was getting ready I got this photo.
That's Ella sleeping next to her "Junie". In the morning I often bring her to our bed when she wakes up, feed her and let her sleep next to us for an hour or so. Since she's in her own room now this is really a special time for us so I was glad to see that they got to share that with her.
I did better away from her than I thought I would. Oh, I missed her, and took every oportunity to talk about her and show people photos but it wasn't so bad.
Grant will never let me live down the early flight we took that required us to get up at 4 Sunday morning just so I could get home to her. I was tired of pumping and just wanted to be home. Physically it was straining. My back hurt, I had blisters, but it was good to be home with my little girl.
The wedding we shot was fantastic. It was at the Loews Portifino Resort in Orlando and was so beautiful. One of the nicest weddings we shot. The resort is set up to look just like Portifino Italy, which to me, looks just like Venice. It was sooo beautiful. Me and Grant felt like it was a mini vacation despite all of the work. :) Late Saturday night after the wedding we went down to the water and had some gelato... just like Italy. :)
We got home around noon on Sunday and it was so good to be home.

You made it!!!!!! I can only imagine how hard it was to leave her, and I don't blame you for getting the earliest flight possible to get home. I don't know that there is any fair comparison to make guys understand the whole nursing/pumping/full thing...
The pictures are wonderful!
love the pictures--it feel good to be back on the blogs after getting my computer up--I am loving it--also am loving you new photography blog...
