Ellie Belly

I haven't written much about my baby girl lately, so I thought I'd take a few minutes to record what she's up to. Ellie is already ten months old! She has eight teeth and is known around these parts as our "secret weapon" for her biting abilities. She is quick to smile, quick to scream, and loves to take naps! She rarely fusses when I lay her down. She still sucks her two middle fingers, but will take a pacifier instead if I offer it to her. She can say three words: "da da da" for daddy, "mmmmoommmm" for mommy, and "hi". (in a cute high pitched falling voice.) Daddy was her first word, Dan is so proud!

Ellie crawls everywhere and pulls up on everything. I caught Owen trying to get a horsey ride from her yesterday and she was so happy about it! She LOVES her Daddy and brothers. She is a definite people person, (...like she had a choice in this family!) and loves anything that has a tag on it. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that she is obsessed with tags. I'm trying to think of a way to make a tag birthday cake when she turns one, I think it would be a hit with her. I could go on and on, but I think that will do for now. Here are some close-ups of our princess. Have a great day everyone!
