SIX Months

I can not even believe that I am writing a post that Ella just turned 6 months old on Feb. 16th!!! Has half a year already flown by?!

Ella went in for her check up on Feb. 23rd with Dr. MacDonald and had a wonderful report. Dr. MacDonald said she is growing perfectly! I know that is what every parent wants to hear.

Stats:

Weight:14 lbs. 4oz (25%)

Length: 25 inches (35%)

Again, I like to compare the measurements to Taylor and Caroline at the same age.

Taylor was 16 lbs. 5oz and 27.5 inches long

Caroline was 13 lbs. 4oz and 24.5 inches long

Ella was right in between the girls! If you take a quick look at Ella, you will be drawn right to her cheeks! She has the biggest and cutest, rosy red cheeks that I have ever seen. When Aunt Kerri came to visit last weekend, she couldn’t get over how big Ella had gotten…later she admitted that Ella’s cheeks just didn’t match her petite little body.

Ella is growing up too quickly! She is sitting all by herself for a minute or so before she starts to tumble forward or to the side. I think she almost has it! Although I am not 100% sure she will be sitting too long. Just like her older two sisters, Ella is a mover and a shaker and wants to move!! As I have said before she will have the strongest abs of any baby! If you lay her down, she comes up as if she is doing a crunch. She is a strong little girl for sure.

Ella is rolling all over the place right now and gets up on her toes like she wants to move!?! She absolutely LOVES to smile and laugh. Those little baby belly laughs put the biggest smile on MY face. She is also talking up a storm with her baby talk and I just love all of it!

MOVIE STAR!
