My sweet Ellie-girl is growing like a weed these days. A very cute weed though, of course :) I took these pictures about a week ago and I feel like she's already changed some more. She hit the 7 week mark on Tuesday, and this week we have started having some nice long stretches at night - including one that was 10 hours!!! Her schedule isn't nearly as consistent as Caroline's was at this age, but I suppose that's the nature of a second child and the slightly more chaotic circumstances of living with 2 small kiddos.
She seems to be a rather serious baby, studying the world around her as it is slowly coming into focus. She's not as content as Caroline was (few are, I realize now), but as she falls into a more predictible pattern she's also starting to smile often and coo occassionally. I find myself snuggling her whenever I have some quiet one-on-one moments and just propping her up on my lap to "visit." Caroline has always been such a "people person" that she never minded being passed around, but Ellie is already starting to prefer Mama and that's just fine with me. Sometimes I don't really feel like sharing anyway ;-)
