Elise is 6 weeks old!

Elise went to visit Grandma Vicki and Grandpa Link's friends on Friday. Everyone thought she was very cute, though no one was quite sure who she looked like--there were votes for both Mommy and Daddy. She posed for a picture with her Grammy and Grandpa while she was there, as well as a pic with her cousin Lexi. Lexi likes to cuddle her a lot--she always helps out when we're in church!


Mommy is still trying to get a picture of Elise grinning, but Elise is still pretty good about shutting the grin down before Mommy can snap the picture. We're getting closer though:




Elise really likes to take naps with Mommy in Mommy and Daddy's big bed. She can see the light shining in from the window there, so if she wakes up she has something pretty to look at. But she usually sleeps like a rock in the big bed, so that doesn't happen real often!



When Elise isn't napping with Mommy in the big bed, she sleeps at the foot of the bed in the cradle that Poppy Stevens made whenever her Mommy was born. All of Poppy's grandchildren slept in this cradle and now his great-granddaughter sleeps in it! She thinks it's pretty comfy with Daddy's fleece Rams blanket in it for padding!

Congratulations! Amanda sent me a link to your blog, so I'm been catching up. We added you as one of our "friends" on Connor's blog so I can check on you all often. She's a cutie and I love her name!
