6 Month Update

Ella had her 6 month well visit this morning with her pediatrician. She is topping the charts in the 90th percentile for both weight (18lbs, 4oz) and height (26 5/8 inches). She's got nothing on her big sister, though, who weighed in at 20lbs, 11oz and 28 1/8 inches three years ago when she was 6 months old.

Ella is doing well and impressed the office staff and doctor with her independent sitting and her adorable new "fish face". I have tried to capture this cuteness on camera, but have not been successful. It is seriously the cutest thing I have ever seen, though!

To celebrate her 1/2 birthday, Ella joined some of her friends for a 1/2 birthday party at Ooh La La bakery. The moms ate cupcakes on the kids' behalf and the kids donned party hats and exchanged gifts.
