5 months

Photobucket
Our little Elsie is 5 months and growing like a weed. I would love to freeze time. She has started baby food and is beginning to L-O-V-E it. 2 of her bottom teeth came through a couple weeks ago and she is testing them out on mom when she eats. Not so fun for mom! We are still able to take her to restaurants and somewhat enjoy ourselves but I am guessing she will be left with her sisters and Grandma pretty soon. She WON'T take a bottle and loves to be with mom 24/7. She is sitting up ALL BY HERSELF and loves her toys. We are loving her belly laughs and enjoying every minute with her. I, on the other hand am still working on getting her in to her crib soon. Still have some work to do there. We love our Elle Belle and are having so much fun with her! Here are a few pictures of her first foods....

I had to get a picture of her admiring her hands. She loves them and plays with them all day long! I love this Bumbo. She sits on the counter and gets to watch me cook, do dishes etc. They never had this when I had my first 2 girls.

She is darling....I want the taffy too. How do you keep candy in plain site? lol. My kids would have it gone in seconds flat. So pretty though.

Oh little Elle is not so little anymore - she grows every time I see her! Enjoy having those canisters on the counter filled with all the yummy candy - I have a feeling Elle is going to be different than Ava with the whole "candy on the counter 24/7" deal you have going on! You might need to change them out with fake fruit like I had to do. Before you know it she will be climbing up trying to get to it all! HA HA!

Beautiful baby! Tell Debbie happy Birthday. I love looking at your blog. It's fun to keep up. Tell your mom hi for me and that we should get together some time. Have her call me, we're in the phone book.

so so cute. She is adorable. I love her hair, bows and messy sweet potato face!! I guess I'll need to get one of those chair things. I saw them at TARGET.

She is getting so big! what a doll! I love when they start eating food, it gives mom a little break!

Those pictures are so cute! It's fun to watch Elsie grow since her and Carson are so close in age. I never have had a bumbo chair. Carson might be getting to old but he isn't sitting up yet.... maybe I'll try one.

She is so cute. I can't believe she's already that old! So adorable.

She is so cute! I use to get so excited when I could feed my kids baby food. I loved watching them eat it! It is crazy she is old enough to do that already.
