Go Elsa!!!

Elsa is just amazing. Though I don't know if I would truly appreciate all she is doing if it wasn't for Sophie. So I feel I have the right to brag. That I get to be exempt from being classified as one of those moms that constantly brags about their exceptional child that can be so annoying especially if you never had kids. So here goes... Elsa is now 6 months and 3 weeks old...exact age is very important ;) In the past week, Elsa has taught herself to transition from laying to sitting, crawl*, blow raspberries and pull herself up to a high kneel. She is so alert and aware of her surroundings. She is very determined. If you move something out of the way that she shouldn't be playing with, she will follow it with her eyes and watch where you put it and then try to get it. If she drops something while sitting in her highchair, she will search for it. No "out of sight...out of mind" for her. It is so much fun watching her grow.

*okay she is barely crawling...just a few forward movements but she can definitely go backwards

It won't take long for those those few forward motions to become a full blown "I'm out of here!" One day your cheering her on to "get up and go" .......the next day you turn around and find out she "got up and went!"

Love,
