Happy Half Birthday Ellie!

Today is Ellie’s half  Birthday! I can’t believe this baby girl is six months old! Ellie is learning how to sit up on her own, but even though she is not very good at sitting yet, she can already crawl! She will crawl a little, then roll a couple of times, and somehow end up on the other side of the room! I think she is moving so early to keep with big sister-or maybe to get away from her!

We started eating cereal this past week and she is getting the hang of it-it is a very messy process, with more ending up on her bib and the high chair than in her mouth, but I’m sure in no time she will be eating a ton!

We have our six month appointment later this month, so I will have to post some stats then!

Big sister Katie is LOVING school! She loves her teacher and I think she would like to go every day, but we are sticking with three days/week for now. She cracks us up with funny things she says and does like:

* She said her Bible verse of the week from school was: “Children, obey your parents and if you remember this you will get a sticker.” 

* “Mom, I’m exhausted…I need a nap!”

* She insists that she is going to marry Byron Binns!

* She loves “bacation” and staying hotels and was so upset when we had to come home last week!

* She eats pancakes EVERYDAY for breakfast…but every morning she pauses like she is really thinking about what she wants to eat and then says “I’ll have……pancakes!”
