| Look how you've grown! |

Ella Bella,
Happy 6 {and a half} months my sweet girl! I love all 16.5
pounds and 25.5 inches of you so much! I cannot believe half of your first year
of life has whizzed by in the blink of an eye.
I love watching you grow! You are learning new things every
single day. You roll over both ways constantly now. You would do it
occasionally before, but now I never, ever find you in the position I left you
in! You sit up for long stretches of time, playing with your toys and watching
Mac, mesmerized. And I sit and watch
you, mesmerized. It is insane the way I love you. I can’t put it into words.
You are a happy, happy baby! Giggles are an every day
occurrence, especially when Mommy or Daddy give you belly kisses. Today, I was
feeding you breakfast, and you had a funny reaction to your cereal. It made
Mommy laugh and I swear you realized it and did it again and again! We were
both laughing. Who knew breakfast could be so fun?
You are such a joy to be around. Your hair is getting
blonder, thicker, and longer. Everywhere we go, strangers tell me how beautiful
and absolutely perfect you are. It makes me so proud to be your mama, and I
know you will continue to make me proud. You are so smart, so aware. There are
such wonderful things in store for you!
We have settled into much more of a routine these last few
weeks. You have started taking much longer naps, much to my amazement and
relief! You love your oatmeal breakfast, waffles, and potatoes {sweet and
white}. A carb girl like her mama? Uh-oh! We spend the day playing with your
toys, reading books, letting Georgie out, and running errands. On warmer days,
we take walks. I can’t wait for it to be warm and stay warm. Spring is really
taking its time this year.
We’ve also been out visiting friends. You got to spend some
time with Gavin, Cole, and Olivia this past week. Your Big Kid Friends brought
you “baby toys” and blankets and pillows to make sure you were comfortable.
Cole especially loved you. He wanted to hold you and spend all of his time with
you.
I keep thinking you’re teething, but they’ve yet to make an
appearance. Your will put anything and everything in to your mouth, especially
my phone and any soft toys. I’ve bought you a million different teethers, but
it seems you’d rather use anything except actual teethers! In fact, you LOVE
the tags on stuffed animals, blankets, and clothes. No matter the purpose of
the item, you find the tag and in your mouth it goes! You even found the actual
product tag on a tag blanket and sucked on that instead of any of the
tags! Silly girl!
I am so enjoying being your mommy. I love you so, so much.
Mommy
