Ellison had her 6 month doctor appointment this past Tuesday and she was a star! She weighed in at 15lbs 4oz and is 24 3/4 inches long. Our doctor was very pleased with her growth and said that everything from her motor skills to her eating habits were right on. Elle was really showing off for our doctor; she was standing (with our help), wiggling, sitting (on her own), lunging toward things, and talking and squealing up a storm...he couldn't believe all of the energy that she has! He gave us the go ahead to start finger-food and stage 2 in baby food. When it came time for her shots she hardly shed a tear (she cried for a second, her bottom lip went out, but that was the end of that). She even got an Elmo sticker for being such a good girl!
Here are some fun, recent pictures:

I had stepped out of the room for a second, this is the position I found Elle in when I got back.
just being silly
Jonathan's mom said that he used to love to suck on pickles, apparently, so does Ellison!
Natalie and Ellison hanging out
Elle doing her reading homework
Trying out some finger-food (whole wheat toast and bananas)
picking up a piece of toast is harder than it looks...getting it to her mouth was even harder!
bye, have a nice day!

She is soo adorable! I love looking at all of your updates.. it's like she's growing up into such a little person! Man where does the time seriously go?!
Too cute. I can't believe she's 6 months already...and we've never met her in person! Glad to hear she's doing well!
