A few fun things about Ellie ~

  • Ellie gets up mulitple times during the night.  She is up between 2-4 times still and is wanting to eat.  Silly my, I get up with her and feed her, so it is my fault that I have created a snacker at night.  It is so easy to hurry and feed her for 2-3 minutes and go for another 3 hour nap. I can't breing myself to let her cry it out yet.
  • Ellie LOVES rice cereal.  She eats it about twice a day.  We are getting ready to introduce her to the world of veggies.  I am more dedicated to making her baby food this time around.
  • She has the chubbiest cheeks ever. Just makes you want to squeeze and kiss them all day long.
  • She is able to sit on her own.
  • She hates tummy time.
  • She can't turn over yet. She is so close.
  • She is in the stranger danger mode.
  • She loves to be where everyone else is.  She doesn't like to be alone.
  • She takes 3 naps still during the day.
  • Loves being outside.
  • She has two teeth and a few more trying to come through. Thankfully she has bitten me yet while nursing.
  • She has the biggest, brightest blue eyes ever!
  • She refuses a pacifier.
  • She has found a few fingers now and then to suck on.
  • She just discovered she has ears and plays with them alot.
  • Likes to play with her own feet. Occassionally she bends down to suck on them.  Gross! At least her feet are always covered with socks, so they are pretty clean.
  • Keaton can really make her laugh. Her laugh is fun.
  • Loves bathtime.
  • Still goes to bed at 6 p.m.. Makes it hard to do anything in the evenings.  We are pretty much home all the time so that is not much of a problem.
  • Her smile is contagious.
  • She is getting better about being in her carseat. 

There are so many more fun things about her that I LOVE so much. Still can't believe that she is 6 months old already.
