6 Months!

6 Month Stats: (6/12 months actually)
Weight: 16 lbs. 11.5 oz. (73%)
Length: 28 3/4 in (97%)
I took her to the doctor on 5/15 and she was 15 lb. 11.5 oz...so at 6 months she was probably a little over 16 lbs!
We took her to Glamour Shots to get her 6 month pictures taken (they had a special) and I planned the appointment at 5pm so she would be up from her afternoon nap and fed, and therefore she should be happy! Well, she was happy/smiling at everyone until we got her in front of the camera...she just sat there and stared at us (me, Rusty, my mom, Kaitlyn, and 2 workers) looking at us like we were all crazy. We managed to get 1 photo with a smile, but it was in a different outfit and I really wanted one of her in the tutu...so this is the best we could get!
New this month:
She is sitting really well by herself...she falls over occasionally, but for the most part she is pretty good! She is very demanding when it is time for cereal/vegetables. We cannot put her in the highchair until it is completely ready or she will squeal and shake her hands like she is about to die! She loves to eat! She loves to watch Baby Signing Time! Loves to go on walks outside! She's gotten a little better at having stranger anxiety, except if she's tired! Can't think of much else, but she is so much fun and I love to watch her grow and learn everyday!

New Pictures

This is my new cheesy grin to show off my 2 new teeth!

I forgot to take an official 6 month picture today, so I will have to do it tomorrow and post after we go to the doctor and get her 6 month stats! But for now I will post a recent picture. (I was going to post more, but my computer/internet is incredibly slow and after 5 failed attempts to post multiple pictures...this is all I could get to work!) I know everyone enjoys seeing Elle grow, but this is especially for my dad since he goes in to surgery tomorrow...hope all goes well and you will be able to see again very shortly! Love you dad/grandpa!
