happy by day, miserable by night...

Poor Elliott! She is definitely feeling the teething pain. Last night, she woke up a bunch of times, just screaming her little lungs off. This is from the baby who normally goes down at 8:00pm and sleeps straight through until 7:00am without so much as a peep. (Yes, we're spoiled.) Last night I felt like I had a newborn all over again, and I remembered how tired and sleep deprived I was. We are crossing our fingers that she makes it though tonight without too many issues.

Even so, during the day she has been pleasant and actually rather happy, thank goodness! She is enjoying practicing all her new moves and is scooting around all over the place. She contorts herself into all sorts of weird positions and then looks at me and Ryan like, "check me out!" Our Ellie is a constant source of entertainment.

So happy (and cute) after carrots and cereal! (Today)

In this first video, taken yesterday, she is "crawling" around, trying to sit, and contorting herself into one of her many bizarre shapes. In the second video, taken earlier tonight, she is sitting up all by herself and getting really excited, as evidenced by the arm flapping and little high pitched squeaks. Hope you get a good chuckle from these!

Squeaking! (Tonight)

  1. First of all that picture is so adorable. Look at the big smile! And how funny was the end of the second video...where did that noise come from by the way? I can't wait to see her with all her new activity!

  2. Try some of that night time baby orajel. I would put it on Isabella while she was teething before bed and it helped to lessen those late night cries. She's so cute! Yay for crawling Elliott!

  3. more more more more! I go on here every single day...it helps keep me sane. So use your SAHM skills and gimme some more (by the way, I'm totally kidding...i know your job is harder than any other!). But I REALLY do go on here daily....sometimes three times a day crossing my fingers that there is more. I love seeing her pics and watching her cute little videos...and reminding myself that I will get to hug and kiss her in one month! YAY!!!!
