(I guess she's not as big as I thought)
Elle's now 6 months old and at a super fun stage! I love this age- where she can sit up (while not yet mobile) and be completely content with a few toys.
This past month was a busy one for Eleanor. With two-thirds of the month spent in California, Eleanor experienced several firsts, including: her first plane ride, first trip to the beach, first Christmas, and her first taste of solid food.
Elle also had her first experience with pink eye while in California. Luckily I was able to get ahold of her doctor and have a prescription immediately sent into the local CVS. Her pink eye symptoms were gone so fast that I never even thought to get a picture of her eye.
Even with all the new people she met, all the new places she went, and all the new beds she slept in, Elle has continued to be an extremely happy, mellow baby. Being the chill kid that she is, she doesn't talk much. She coos and babbles quietly, but nothing loud and dramatic like her older sister would do. She usually just watches and listens. Maybe it's also due to the fact that Elle's got a fun big sister that's always keeping her entertained.
A video- to show some of the craziness that Elle gets to deal with on a daily basis!
It's been fun watching old home videos and noticing how different Elle is as a baby than Madi was. Aside from being much more mellow, Elle sleeps less, spits-up a lot more, is more smiley, easy to make laugh, and loves eating, sucking, and chewing on anything she's given (Madi never put things in her mouth).
But just like Madi, Elle already loves baby dolls! Unfortunately Madi's not the greatest sharer. Some toys just have to be played with while Madi's napping! :)
Happy half birthday baby girl!
We love you SO much!

She has grown up since the last time I saw her! What a fun girl she sounds like. :) Looking forward to catching up this week!
Probably the most important first of last month was having her Aunt Lindsay hold her. Hugs and Kisses to both of those adorable girls.
