A Few of the Many Faces of Elliette



These pictures aren't the best quality since they were taken with our cell phones but I wanted to post a few more pics since Elliette is a month old now (I can't believe it). They change so much so quickly. She is so funny and pulls such funny faces but as soon as a camera is pulled out she puts on her duh face and won't do much more so it has taken a while to get a few different faces, especially the smile. She is so stinking cute, or at least we thing so, and cracks us up daily as we just sit and watch her discover new things. Since she doesn't like to be bound up she has pretty good control of her arms and hands and is getting pretty good at holding her head up as well - especially when she wants something. So far this month has been great and she has stayed a good baby only crying when she wants something or if she has gas pains so it is pretty easy to console her. We have more pictures on the actual camera that I will get around to posting soon (I hope) including ones of her blessing day.

Well I am back to work tomorrow and it makes me sad already to have to leave her for a good portion of the day, even though she mostly sleeps throughout that time. But good news is that I only have to work until Christmas and then we get to move! Woohoo! we can hardly wait. Justin has successfully switched to Military Intelligence so American Fork and California here we come!

Good luck going back to work! And Congrats on Justin's job. But I'm confused--are you moving to AF or Cali??
Eliette is so cute! Enjoy her cause they grow up too fast.

Justin and Melissa said...

Sorry, were moving to AF for 10 weeks while he does some military stuff in Draper and then to Cali for about 1.5 yrs for him to learn Chinese.
