An update from Ellie

My mom and dad are taking way too long to update the family blog so I decided to give you my own update. Here's some updates on me, Miss Ellie Morgan!

*I will be 6 months on April 17!
*I wore a birthday hat for the first time at my friend Noelle's 1st birthday party!


*I had my first ear infection which the doctor found at my 4 month check up (actually double ear infection).
*At 5 months I weighed in at 16 1/2 lbs.
*I love to sit up, but fall over a bit if no one is helping me, no more laying on the floor for me!
*I rolled over when I was 4 months old (twice), both times mommy wasn't watching (I am so sneaky!) but I'd rather just roll from my back to my side and then to my back again for now.
*I told mommy and daddy that I am so over my swing and now they got this new thing out with lots of toys that my puppy can't steal! And I get to look around the room in it too.



*I love to eat cereal before I go to bed! Yum! Yum!
*I just tried water for the first time out of this cool sippy cup mommy got me! I can even hold it by myself!



*I love to say ooooooo and jibber jabber, and I can squeal REALLY LOUD!
*I am very ticklish and love to laugh!
*I love to stick my hand out for Maizy to lick.


*Maizy still likes to steal my pacifiers, especially in the morning if mommy and daddy don't pick it up off the floor before her. (I can spit it out really far when I am sleeping.)


(That's my Maizy, trying to steal my pacifier right out of my mouth while I sleep!)


(Maizy also thinks she is my guard dog as she sleeps in front of my crib, and sometimes underneath)

*All this activity makes me so sleepy at night time that I sleep for 9 hours!



PS Mommy says she is going to update the blog more often now, so please check back next week to see what new tricks I can do!
