Ellisyn Mae- Update

Having a baby is VERY time consuming and I just realized that I have forgotten to blog!  Elli Mae turned 3 months old on the 3rd and she has changed so much since just last week!  Michael and I have been working very hard to get her on a schedule and it seems to be working quite well!  She is so expressive and smiles all the time.  She loves her sister Lulu and has started to pet her or at least tries to by grabbing her fur when she comes around.  She loves tummy time and sitting her bumbo.  She always falls asleep when we are in the car just like her dad ;)
At her two month appointment she weighed 10lbs and 6oz and was almost 23 inches long!  That's a gain of 4 lbs and almost 4 inches in two months!  Crazy what mommy milk can do!!  I cannot believe she's so big already and in no time she will be sitting up, crawling, and walking!  I am not ready!
In June Elli and I flew to NC to see family and her Aunt Mackenzie graduate from high school!  It was great being able to spend time with them after not seeing my dad and sister since Feb, and my aunts even came from NY and DE to spend time with us!  I hadn't seen my Aunt Kimmy in five years and my Aunt Loddie in three!  I can't wait to see them again and for them to meet Michael!
One of the things we have decided to do is cloth diapering!  We started about 3 weeks ago and Elli seems to love much better than the disposables and we love saving money as well ;)  We especially love Charlie Banana diapers!  They have a one size adjustment system and she will be able to wear them until she is potty trained!  Then we can use them for our next child in a few years!  I also LOVE how cute they are on her booty and the patterns and colors!  It's safe to say I'm addicted now ;)
I can't wait to see how much she weighs at her 4 month appointment!  Until next time, here's a few pictures from the past three months!
Hope you enjoy!
