The Epic Ellabeth 6th month recap

Oops with the posting of the first 6 months video I sort of forgot the critically important 6th month recap.  I need to catch that up before the month is over.


When Ella was 5 months old she loved:
Playing soccer

and just standing around-look ma no hands.

..twirling around and around at break neck speeds in her saucer and then gently resting her head down on it when she got too dizzy (too funny and too cute to put into words).


When she was 5 months old, Ellabeth loved:
Listening to her siblings practice their instruments and talking to Shemly. (She often finds Shemly so delightful that she cannot help herself from doing aforementioned saucer twirling with glee)

Being a genius stack the shapes? Sure! ……It just takes some determination….TADA!!!!!  

Oh sure! NOW you give me the directions

Oh my WORD! Toys these days are so. much.fun!

Chilling with her peeps at the Black Swamp Art Festival. I can’t tell you how much it warms my heart to have a community of friends who love my babies.


Love the pics of her dancing with her big brother. He even dipped her

When Ellabeth was 5 months old she enjoyed:
Catalogue shopping for her Fall Wardrobe

Cheering Benj on at his cross country meets. (With our sweet friend Jessi, girls cross country champion!)  She even enjoyed a post race salty snack of Jessi’s shoulder.

When Ella was 5 months old she rocked:
the Fall fashions on the runways of Toys R Us

When Ellabeth was 5 months old she spent lots of time exploring.
Things like her diaper bag

When Ellabeth was 5 months old, she spent lots of time
on the soccer sidelines, cheering on her sibs..in warm and sunny weather

And all bundled up in chilly weather too

When Ellabeth was 5 months old she was mesmerized by:
a dancing, singing cow all the way from Australia

…her soccer ball rattle (another gift we gave the sibs to announce my pregnancy)

..and her carseat strap which we quickly dubbed Mr. Strap and loved for his ever convenient presence.

When Ellabeth was 5 months old she kept very busy:
practicing her dog-back riding on her trusty sidekick steed.

..and practicing her driving for when her trusty steed is tired (or unwilling)

When Ellabeth was 5 months old she perfected:
looking like a naughty little doll

And an innocent little doll

She rocked the ruffle butt

And the heart applique butt. (While putting up with a brother who could not resist nibbling her)

She was declared the cutest Springbok Rugby fan

And nailed looking perfectly, preciously pathetic one evening when she was not feeling well.

Other things she was into when she was 5 months old?
Scratching different textures, scrunching paper, my iPhone, music (especially singing which she likes to harmonize with), kicking in the water and in general especially when her kicking makes a big noise (she has been dubbed “happy feet), tags of all sorts, going on jogs with Shemly and mommy, her siblings and her daddy, her mommy (nurnie!!!!), her many friends/fans, books and being read to, magazines, imitating sounds and making fake screamy sounds.
We loved 5 months old!!
