18 months
my how time flies!! happy 18 months to my baby!
she is doing perfect these days.
moving around like crazy, talking and GROWING.
she had a huge growth spurt per the doc at her recent appointment.
she grew 3 inches in three months and went from 30% in height to 75% which explains all her sleeping lately!
she is the joy of our lives and we are truly blessed by her!

10 months
it's pretty amazing that i will have a one year old in less than two months.
i just love seeing how she has changed over 10 months.
what a blessing these pictures will be 10, 15, 20 years from now!
eleanor has had a rough month to say the least.
from a double ear infection, the rash (which is still gone), her first tooth and an awful cold that she is just now getting over, she is finally back to her happy self and even more importantly back to sleeping 12 hours at night! thank the lord.
other Eleanor facts:
she weighs approx 16 1/2 pounds.
she naps at 9:30 and 2:30.
she nurses 4 times a day, around 7:30, 11:30, 3:00 and 7:00.
she eats three times a day and can put quite a bit down.
she loves turkey, green beans, hummus, cheese and pretty much anything i offer her.
she can say five words- mama, dada, buddy, lyla and jett (her cousins).
she loves music and clapping her hands.
she loves to point her finger.
her and lyla get super excited when they see eachother. it's pretty adorable.

9 months
my how time flies!
i can't believe we have a 9 month old!
and it just keeps getting better and better...
eleanor facts:
she weighs 16 lb 4 oz. (20%)
she is 27 inches long. (45%)
she has been sleeping through the night for a little over a month now, 7:30pm to 7:30am... i truly thought this day would never come for us but oh how it did and it's AMAZING.
she is eating baby oatmeal, fruits and veggies for most meals but is transitioning to "big people" food.
she loves cheese, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, grilled chicken and green beans.
she is nursing 5 times a day.
she LOVES to babble and says dada to almost everyone and everything.
blake & i are convinced she has said Buuu Dee to buddy a couple times... ;o)
she still has no teeth & still isn't too interested in crawling which is completely ok with me considering we have done ZERO baby proofing.
she has a new face she makes...she squints her eyes and scrunches her nose with a giant smile...i really need to capture that in a picture because it is the cutest!
blake headed off to colorado with his brother and it was so sweet to see him say goodbye to eleanor. he even teared up (which he pretended was for me) but i know fully that it was because of our sweet girl. she definitely has him wrapped around her lil finger!

8 months
miss eleanor had her first big cold this week.
she was a tough one getting to smile in this pic.
blake & i danced around, made every noise possible, sang, etc & all we got was a half smile with the eyebrows raised.
oh well...still a cutie!

6 months
happy 6 months to my baby girl!
what a true blessing she has been these last 6 months to me, blake and our families.
eleanor stats:
two days ago she had her 6 month check up.
she weighed 14 lbs 2 ounces (25%) and measured 26 1/4 inches long (75%).
she pretty much stayed right on track for what she has been measuring thus far.
she was a very brave girl during her shots- only cried for 10 seconds & then was fine.
...always so hard to watch!
OH and the doctor didn't see any evidence of teething although she said that doesn't necessarily mean one could not pop up tomorrow.
so much for all my theories that she was teething!

4 months
here is my sweet baby girl at 4 months!
i can't believe how much she has changed this month.
she has so much personality now...it's truly a blast!
all went well at her 4 month check up.
she weighs a whopping 12.6 pounds now (25th %) and is 25 1/4 inches long (80th %).
this definitely explains why at 3 months she was finally able to fit into her 0-3 month clothing and now they are all too short however the 3-6 month clothing fits in length but not width.
i am pretty sure they don't make "tall' in baby clothes.
oh well.
eleanor tidbits:
she is still being swaddled although we are beginning to not swaddle for naps.
she eats every three hours and still wakes up twice a night to eat.
we are still soley nursing & probably won't start solids until 6 months.
she is not teething yet.
she is a spitter upper.
most days we are on a 7 am, 10am, 1pm, 4pm, 7pm feeding schedule.
she is a great napper, still taking 3 naps a day, anywhere from 45-min to 2 hours.
she is typically asleep by 730pm each night and wakes up at 7am.
she loves bathtime and hates getting out of the tub which is really the only time she ever cries.
she loves, loves her butterfly mobile above her crib & her blabla mobile above her changer.
she has slept in her crib from the beginning & always goes in awake.
she has the SWEETEST smile that will melt your heart.
