All About Elowenn

Elowenn is my darling little 7 month old. I can't believe how fast time has gone with her, and I enjoy every single minute with our surprise baby. And because Charlotte is usually the "star" of my posts, I figured it's high time that you knew a little about our other baby girl!

Little Elowenn is a tiny, chubby, snuggly little cherub of a baby. She is happy 95% of the time, and is constantly screaming in delight and making adorable baby noises. She only wakes up 2 times in the night to nurse, and has 2 naps a day. And all I need to do is put a soother in her mouth, lay her down, and boom! Her little eyes close and she falls asleep with barely a peep. This, for us, is REVOLUTIONARY!!!

She is very attached to her Mama, and is constantly smothering me with kisses and hugs. She is a champion nurser (seriously, it only takes her 10 minutes to empty both sides) and loves sweet potatoes and hates avacado and bananas.

She has been described as "a little blob" by her pediatrician, for the simple reason that Elowenn doesn't move. She doesn't roll, or really make much of an effort. The reason for this? The doctor thinks it's simply because she doesn't have to, and not that she can't. With a doting big sister and her mama wrapped around her little finger, everything is brought to her on a platter.  She loves the jolly jumper and can sit up for hours, though if she falls over she can't get back up yet. And she loves to observe. She loves to observe so much that she can sit through an hour and a half church services without fussing. She loves to watch her big sister and all her antics, and will giggle and wiggle and scream whenever Charlotte comes near her.

And that's all about Elowenn. She is so easy to love, so easy to mother, and just so darn cute with her big baby blue eyes and dimpled hands.  She has changed our world!
