The Visit
Elliana is six months and getting older each day. She is a little over 16 pounds and about 26 inches long. She has started on oatmeal in the evenings and loves every opportunity to eat with a spoon! She still takes three naps and eats six times a day. So if I can fit in six feedings during the day, she will sleep from 8 pm to 6 am. I will work on dropping a feeding next week and see if she will keep letting me sleep. -That is what it is about, me sleeping.
Last week Grandma M. was able to spend an entire week here in Cincinnati. Elliana enjoyed every minute of it. She laughed and played to her heart's content! I was able to go to the store or a friend's without working around Elliana's naps. It was a good time by all.
This week we are back to running around. She did great at the YMCA this morning. (She did not love it for a few weeks.) She played and watched the other children and I worked off the Girl Scout cookies. We even made it up to GE to have lunch with Chris, who forgot his wallet and lunch this morning. The grocery store is next, but Elliana needs a much needed nap, which she is happily doing now. So I am off to clean up the kitchen and make my grocery list.
