Baby Face Friday: 7 Weeks

 Like my new blocks?  Mommy got them from BB Blocks.

 Weight: 11 lbs 4oz

Height: She seems longer

Sleep: Sleeping thru the night for the most part

Favorite toys & past times: Discovering her hands and trying to figure out what to do with them.  She also has become interested in some of the toys that hang from her bouncer and car seat.  Jacques the Peacock is a big hit!

Highlights from this week:

Nap time with Piper

Animal Kingdom

I've realized that I have developed numerous animal themed nicknames for Eloise.  
It's like Animal Kingdom over here...

• Squeaky Mouse has the hiccups
• Piggy burps really loud
• Little bird perches and looks over my shoulder
• Hungry Puppy when she is getting ready to nurse
• Piggy snorts when she is getting hungry 
• Snuggle Bunny loves to be swaddled and cuddled 
• Froggie legs kick around when being carried into the bath tub

Baby Products I love/Must Haves: Halo Swaddle Me Sleep Sacks

Eloise meet Sasha - she is your BFF.

Eloise finally got to meet her BFF Sasha Rae Thakur!  

This Monday, we had a Ladies Lunch with Sasha, her mom Sarah, Aunt Anita, & Aunt Nicole.  

If these little girls only knew how badly their mommies wanted them...

I like to think that they are having a serious conversation here and Eloise is listing out the reasons that she is going to vote for Romney, "Reason #1, my Dad told me I have to."

Sasha Rae - almost 6 months & sitting up like a big girl
