Day Nine- July 13

Saturday, July 13, 2013

Raelynn and Declan both decided to wake up earlier than Elliana today! Granted, she did wake up at 4am to eat, but then slept for a few more hours. 

We all went to Mimi's house for breakfast.  It was so nice to get out of the house for a little outing.  We have been wanting to stick real close to home and not introduce a lot of new faces to Elliana until she is more comfortable with us, so we haven't really left the house much in the past week. 

 

 

 Home for nap time!  I think it is very safe to say now that Elliana has this napping and sleeping thing down.  She learned it so fast, and we are so thankful.  She goes down and cries for a moment, but just about the time we shut the door, she has stopped. 
God is so gracious to us and we are so thankful that we had received advice from our agency!

Johnny Jump Up time!!  And little brother at 20 weeks!

Manicures today!! Fun times getting nails clipped:)  She sat SO well!

Mimi bought this ABC mat for Declan's birthday.  We knew they would love crawling in the tunnels!

CAGED! We figured out how to keep her sitting still:)

 Elliana liked to scratch at the textures on the pieces.  She also picked some up and was rolling around on the mat.

 



 



8 MONTHS OLD!

Ended the night with dinner and baths.....

Elliana starts in the highchair but after a while she goes in the bouncer.

BIG CHEESY GRIN!! :)  Finally caught it on camera!



She uses her feet to play with everything just as much as she uses her hands!

She is literally turning that mirror with her foot.



beards at bathtime!
