5 Months!

Eliana turned 5 months on July 20. We celebrated her during our wonderful stay in Buena Vista with Grandpa, Nonna and Uncle Chance.

Her new tricks for 5 months are: the happy baby pose (grabbing both feet with each of her hands), eating her toes, rolling consistently from tummy to back from both left and right sides, grabbing at everything and putting things into her mouth (including mom's and dad's noses, hair, earrings, etc), talking louder, giggle matches (mom or dad giggles and she does it back), taking a big girl bath (graduated from the bath chair in the kitchen sink), holding the bottle, and doing a butt-in-the-air move when on her tummy to grab for things.

She is still not so fond of the car seat or long naps (30 min on the dot!).
New places she visited: Colorado - Buena Vista, Ft Collins; Seattle - the Seattle aquarium and the Woodland Park Zoo.

She also got to meet a lot of Dahlgren extended family members during a party my Mom threw. She met the Orrs, the Pustilniks, the O'Connors, the Steinles, the Swansons, the Zinks, and the Conroys. And, she also got to meet Great Grandma Esther, and as mentioned above, Uncle Chance.













Yummy toes
