Today, on Pearl Harbor Day, little Ellyson is six months old. And let’s just say that after a really rough week with her (sniffles, teething, a bit croupy), I am really glad she is smiling in these pictures! Because she has done so much crying this past week, her poor little throat is sounding a little hoarse…
Despite her bout with something, she is generally pretty happy. She is much more content now to be left on the floor on a blanket with a few toys nearby. She frequently rolls from her tummy to her back, but not vice versa. And while she wants to sit up, she can’t do it by herself yet. And she has been trying new foods: baby cereal, bananas (not a favorite), applesauce, sweet potatoes, and peaches. Animal crackers get good and soggy. Cheerios are a bit elusive.
And if there is one thing I can say about Ellyson: she regimental in her schedule. She eats every four hours. Unfortunately, she still thinks that includes the middle of the night. And while I am working to break her of this, something keeps arising to interrupt any progress we are making in this department. But a good schedule is wonderful for planning out our days!
With Sock Monkey!
And the first time in the little rocking chair.
