Growing...

Oh my how Ellie is growing. We have switched the seat in the stroller from the bassinet to the regular seat (though it tilts all the way back and faces us).

I have no idea why this photo is turned vertical, and I don't know how to fix it. But, that's Ellie in the stroller seat with her sun hat on.

And last night we expanded her bassinet to the crib and moved her from our room to her own room. She did really well. I think it was harder for me than for her. She fell asleep by herself, as usual, and slept her usual 6 hours. She is going through an attachment phase and I was worried that she wouldn't sleep without me near her. But, as usual, Ellie is mellow and low key.

Above is the crib all set up and ready for Ellie. We did expand the polka dots, so there are now twice as many up on the wall and it extends all the way down. Ellie really seems to enjoy them and it makes the room look really cool.

Below is a photo of Ellie in her pajamas all ready for bed. When I went to get her for a 7am feeding this morning, she gave me the biggest smile. She was so happy to see me! It made waking up at 2am and again at 7am all worth it!

And of course, a smiling Ellie. She was in her crib getting ready for a little nap. (Yes, that's an alligator on her wrist. Its a rattle and its fun to watch her move her arm and it make noise. Probably more fun for us than for her right now though).
