Five Alive

Elisabeth's five month birthday has come and gone.  Where did the time go?  Just yesterday she was a tiny newborn, waking up every two hours.  Now she has grown into an active, loving, happy little baby.  She is right on schedule for her development. Here are some interesting facts about Miss E:

•  Rolls both from her front to back and vice versa
• Sleeps about 11 hours each night, uninterrupted
• Sits up without support (2 minutes is the longest stretch so far)
• Loves eating rice cereal in her high chair
  
• Has a keen interest in our dog.  In fact, the sight of Sofi can make her tears stop
• Her favorite book is Snuggle Puppy
• She wakes up with a huge smile on her face (She has her mama's mouth, that is for sure!)
• Gives the most expressive looks, including the sassy look, the "stink eye" and the "I am pretending I am shy" look
• Is very social.  Loves to stare people down until they smile at her which she responds with an huge smile.

We can't help but love her beautiful smile, contagious giggle and cheery disposition.  Not to mention her chubby cheeks!  I may be biased, but a mug like hers is Hollywood worthy.
