6 Months Old!


Our Ellie-bug is half a year old! No stats yet b/c our doctor's visit isn't for a couple weeks. She can sit up (still a bit wobbly) but doesn't seem very interested in the thought of crawling. She's a drooling mess who puts EVERYTHING in her mouth to chew on, but no teeth yet. I've been saying "they're about to come in" for weeks now.
She is the SMILIEST little thing on the planet. Chris & I agree that one of our favorite times of the day is seeing her huge grin when she sees us peek over the edge of the crib when she wakes up.
Bedtime is around 8pm and she sleeps through until about 6am...once every few nights she wakes up and needs her pacifier replaced or a re-swaddle, but other than that she's out all night. Takes 3 naps a day (two mini-ones, and one longer one), and eats two cereal meals a day in addition to her bottles. I think pureed fruit may be in the near future!
Not an especially big fan of being rocked, but she loves to be held and bounced. Loves to hang out in her exer-saucer...especially when Red decides she will spin Noelle around. Red can be a little vigorous with Noelle, and it's hard to convince her to "be gentle" when Noelle is giggling and clearly having the time of her life.


Hangin' with Papa H

Happy with pretty Aunt Amy





Noelle, you just keep getting cuter!!
