Ella is 8 months old!

The last month was busy for Ella. Finally her bottom right front tooth popped in and boy that sucker is sharp! There are still many more budding but not quite thru the surface yet. She also started eating solid fool at the beginning of May. Everything from brown rice, oats, sweet potatoes, avacado, peaches, mangos, bananas....etc - you name it. She is eating so much (maybe that is why the girth). Unfortunately she is getting more and more clingy to her mother...that happens around this age but she is really living that up right now. No one else seems to do right now for miss Ella. Still no official crawling, but she's getting the 4 legged stance down quite nicely. Ella also was busy this month moving bedrooms - she now shares with her big brother Owen! It has been going on like that for about 2 weeks and so far no problems. Owen scaled the side of the crib one morning and climbed in with her - but other than that - seems like those 2 are having a ball. (This was all done in preparation for our additional 7 house guests coming to live on May 31st). Ella loves to play with her big brothers..pulling their hair and trying to hit them. They love it too. So many big things happening during her 8th month of life. I know I say it every month but she is growing so quickly - it seemed that looking at these pictures this month made me realized just how much she is changing (especially the one below where she looks like she is 16)....oh I am not ready for that. Again - Ella we love you!





What is she 16 years old in this picture?

Just showing the overall "girth' of this lady. Baby girls bodies are sure different from baby boys. This girl has got a behind that just doesn't stop. And plenty of thighs to go along with it. So cute.
