WAY Over-Due!!

I haven't been able to post in a long time! Ellie isn't crawling yet, but she's a wiggle-worm and wants to go and do things constantly! She's also very strong willed for being only 6 months old....I'm thinking this might be a problem....

She learned how to sit up at 5 months, around the end of January, and she hasn't looked back! She now tries to pull up and stand with anything around her.

January


She was sitting in this laundry basket...she was leaning over the side trying to get to my shoes! She actually landed right on the shoes, but I had already moved them before I thought to take a picture




Ellie's first bath with her new bath ring.



Her toes are like extra fingers!



We do this a lot. She loves to snuggle and takes longer naps if I just hold her.




Ellie loves baby cereal. She always grabs the spoon and the bowl.

February





TUB TIME!!! Caitlyn and Ellie

Ellie loves any kind of water. She was thrilled to have company!









Daddy and Ellie taking a nap





Mommy and Ellie. She kept burying her head in my side like she wanted to snuggle. Very sweet.





Poop explosion! It was everywhere! I had to carry her - jumper and all - to the bath tub and hose her off. Gross!







This is how I left her...







...This is what I saw when I came back in the room....



...And then...



...She stood up!







Ellie, Jeremy, and Caitlyn. They all had pink on, so I had to get a picture. So cute!




Sweet baby






Ellie's first corn-cob. She wasn't very interested in it, though.



March 5th- It was almost 85 degrees!



I let Ellie play in an inch of water in this laundry basket while I hung the clothes out on the line.






She loves splashing!
I have more pictures that I'll try to post after I get them off of our phones. We take a lot of pictures that way because we always have a phone with us. She constantly surprises me with the newest thing she has learned to do. I'll try to post more soon!
I think she'll be crawling soon...which I'm a little worried about! Our house isn't exactly baby-proof! She gets up on her hands and knees a little bit and she's starting to rock. She already scoots pretty well, too. The next thing I know she'll be walking!

  1. My fave was the snuggly couch picture. It was giving me serious baby fever...until I saw the jumpy full of poop. Ew.

    She is such a gorgeous baby.
