5 months


Ellie finds her thumb and loves to roll over and over!

One, two, three, four, five... FIVE! Today Ellie Belly is five months old. Here are five really cute things about Ellie.
  • She loves to talk. She talks all the time. And, hearing her little voice is so cute. In the morning when she wakes up she just talks and looks out the window.
  • She is very strong... she doesn't want to sit. We are working on sitting up and all she wants to do is stand. She loves it when we hold her hands and let her stand.
  • She smiles so big whenever Hadley is around her. She looks for Hadley and knows when she is coming over to her. Her face lights up. She loves it when Hadley sings to her. When I need just one more minute to finish something, I ask Hadley to entertain Ellie by singing and she usually does. Her favorite song to sing is Twinkle Twinkle little star.
  • Ellie's favorite place is the be outside. She enjoys when the trees sway and likes to stare off into the sky. We can put her outside in her chair or lay her on her mat and she is just calm and cute.
  • She is really doing well on our schedule. She basically formed her own schedule, she wakes up around 7-8am and eats - then she eats around 10am, 12-1pm, 3-4pm, 6-7pm and then a little snack before she goes to sleep at 8ish. I then hold her for a bit or a while and put her down to sleep in her bed. Then around midnight, 3am and up again around 7-8am.
