Happy 5 Months!

Dearest Elise,

This last Thursday you turned five months old! I know this is totally cliche, but you are getting so big!! We did not have to go to the doctor this month - which I am sure you would be happy about, if you understood - so I am not sure EXACTLY how much you weigh. According to our home scale though, you weigh almost eighteen pounds, and I swear you have grown at least an inch! You are still getting chubbier - you have the cutest little side rolls and buddha belly. I have to fend off friends who just want to eat your pudgy little arms and legs right up!


Alot has happend this month. You took your first long roadtrip - 500 miles! - to see your Popa, Nana, and Uncle Nathan for Thanksgiving, and you slept almost the whole way. While we were there you got to meet Grandmother Betty and Pop-pop Joe and make friends with their great-granddaugheter Kennedy. You experienced CoLd - it snowed just a little while we were there!


You sat in front of the fire with Uncle Nathan, and you were entraced by the flames. You played so hard in your jumper that you were just worn out! We said our goodbyes and headed home, and again, you slept almost the whole way! What a good baby!

Love,
Mommy
