happy fourth

of july and four months for elsie! 🙂
photo taken minutes ago on our bed. this look here is the ‘you crazy woman, put that camera down and feed me’ look.
ok here she is:
totally gave up her pacifier. is strictly on fingers. does the fingers (2-4 at a time) and other arm across her eyes when she is ready to go to sleep. loves to sleep in her crib, preferably as close to her first sets of yawns as possible…if we miss that window… she gets a bit upset. 🙂
is totally entertained by her brothers and sisters– and all other family members.. big smiles for them.
not loving her swing as much, but loves her bouncy.
is SO good when we do errands.
can roll from back to belly but has trouble pulling her arm out from beneath herself.
is not a big fan of being on her belly–which is why she has difficulties with the arm thing.
beginning to wear bibs because she is quite the drooly pots.
totally fascinated by her hands and feet. (i love this stage)
good napper.
loves being outside in the evening.
loves her bath so much. 815pm every night. for a good half hour. 
needs her bath/bed routine at night to be able to sleep straight from 9pm-7-8am. (i really like this part- ha!)
lays in her crib in the morning and talks to herself, has this pull toy that plays music.. and sometimes we wake up to hear it, i am totally amazed that she can pull it!
her eyes are still a bit grey but are slowly turning brown.
still such a sweetheart.
