6 Months

Elise,

How can it be that you are half a year old?  I was just looking at your pictures from the day you were born.


Wow!  How much you have changed, and how much you have changed the dynamic of our little family.  We have all come so far in such a short amount of time.  Everyone compliments me on what a good baby you are.  You have developed quite the personality and are already learning how to test me.  There are moments when I think to myself, "How in the world can you possibly scream any louder or longer?"  But you do, and the moment I pick you up, you are all better.  If you are already throwing tantrums I hate to imagine you as a 2 year old.  With the way time has flown by, it seems like it's only mere moments away that you'll be walking, having your 1st birthday party, then getting ready to go to school, and then going on your first date.  I still take in those moments when you rub your little head into my shoulders and grab my shirt, and as much as you love your daddy and shreek with excitement to see him, you still look to me when you are inconsolable.  It has been so exciting to see you learn new things each day, and you are such a smart little girl!  I know the next few months are going to become very exciting for us as you become mobile and I start baby proofing the house!  I will be on my toes more than ever before keeping up with you, I'm sure.
Happy half year birthday, my little baby!
