Baby Elise

Is getting old! Between misplacing camera, forgetting where the cord is, and not wanting to stop looking at her long enough to get the camera out, pictures of her babyhood are few and far between. So here's some catch up:

This was taken shortly after Christmas. Elise is on the right, the other nakey baby is her cousin Brett who is about a month older.

Elise is about the happiest baby you'll ever know. She smiles just seeing one of us walk in the room. Although her cheeks are getting heavy and if she's tired she's a little slower to smile for strangers.

Dad's princesses all in pink PJs.

The girls like to hold her, although it's more like propping the baby against her sisters. They really aren't that much bigger than she is.

Can you see about 5 dimples on her chin(s)? Her whole face scrunches up when she smiles. And those CHEEKS! (I wasn't sure if you noticed those)

She can lift herself up on her arms and she now rolls around (from front to back, not the other way yet) and can scootch in circles. No crawling yet, but that's ok by me.

Aaaaaaannnnd here are the rolls. I love having a chubby baby. She has really fattened up since we were at home over Christmas. This is the face she gives when we are out and about: No smiling, just matter of fact, and taking in everything.

We are smitten
