Wee Vintage Wednesday 2/1/2012

Well hello!  Today is the first day of one of my favorite months 🙂  I love February.  I love Valentines Day.  I love that the days are getting longer and the sun is shining more.  I am loving the weather this winter! 🙂

This little lady turned 6 months old yesterday!  Can you even handle those cheeks?  I  confess that I cannot.  I eat up those cheeks all.day.long.  She is just blossoming after a hard decision to end nursing her.  She was not growing properly and was constantly angry/hungry.  My milk was pretty much gone I discovered.  First time I have ever had that happen.  So we gave her formula and she guzzled it like she had been famished in the desert.  She also started sleeping more than one hour at a time that night!  In the last month she has packed on 4-5 pounds alone!

She is also eating solids like a champ!  She loves anything and everything!  Way to go Ellie 🙂  She has also discovered her new love….jumping in her Jumperoo.  She LOVES it.  She also loves to give very slobbery kisses and cut her first tooth earlier this week!  The second one is about to break through, should only be a day or two more.  She has been very pleasant even though I know she has been uncomfortable.

She also appears to know her siblings names.  I am not kidding.  We have tested this several times.  When asked where Rowan is, she will look around until she sees him and lock her eyes on him grinning so big.  Same with Asher and Violet.  It is so cool!

She has discovered her right foot.  Not her left yet.  She also loves to roll around on the floor but has not figured out how to roll onto her tummy yet.  She loves to make spit bubbles and squeal at the top of her lungs.  When she sees me when I go to get her up from naps she squeals and pants like a puppy and smiles as huge as she can.  She is pretty much the most adorable thing ever 🙂  She is also very ticklish and loves to be tickled.

Just look at those chubby little knee caps 🙂

So, baby girl…..you are amazing.  I want to freeze time, you are growing far too fast.  I love seeing your little personality emerging.  You are just so sweet and love to be around people.  We love you little Elsie.
