Ellie the Elephant

I have been asked what the baby's name will be, so I thought I would share! Her name will be Eloise Cora, but will be called "Ellie". Eloise is after Micah's sweet grandma who passed last November, and Cora is the middle name of my grandma.

We found some fun bedding that is even named "Ellie" and are thinking about going with that as her nursery theme.

Of course, what is in the bedding? Elephants! :)  

We aren't going elephant crazy, and are sticking more to a pink and green theme, but I thought it would be nice for her to have a little elephant softie to hang on to. 

I added different textures for her to feel as well as little bells inside so that it jingles.

Now I am thinking about making a mobile similiar to this!

  1. Awww, its precious. I found a pattern similar to the shape of that little elephant and tried to make one for Dillon before he was born - it was no bueno. LOL it turned out BAD haha! I tried an alligator, it turned out better hahaha. What a sweet little softie for sweet baby Ellie to play with! :) Nice job, mama!
