Elise had her first round of immunizations on February 5th, and it was not a fun time for anyone. She got 5 shots in her legs (2 on one and 3 on the other) and was not pleased to be getting them. Mommy didn't have a very good time trying to calm her down either!
Here's a close-up of the band-aids the nurse put on her right leg. At least they were cute!
Elise, like most babies, is a fan of being naked. Mommy had to snap this pic of her because she was talking to Mommy about how nice it was to be clean!
This is Elise confused about the hood on her head. She likes to have her hair towel-dried, but then when you stop she gets a very puzzled look on her face, wondering where this thing on her head came from.
Mac came over for a visit last week. As you can see, Elise is growing like a weed and appears to be taller than Mac, who is 7 weeks older! We didn't try real hard to stretch Mac out like Elise is in the pic, though, so maybe they're the same height. Either way, they had a good time visiting.
Elise is starting to notice toys. She's always had these toys on her bouncy seat, but now she coos and smiles at her giraffe especially. Good times.
Elise is grinning all the time now, though she still hasn't felt like letting out a giggle yet. Mommy and Daddy think that they're pretty funny, but so far Elise doesn't agree!
Mommy has started playing airplane with Elise and she straightens out and enjoys herself--though this picture doesn't really do it justice!
Elise stays home with Daddy on Mondays while Mommy is at work now, and she really does love him. She stays with Grammy Vicki on Tuesday-Thursday and with Nanny or Grandma Jackson on Fridays. Mommy does NOT like being back at work and leaving her baby girl, but she's glad she doesn't have to leave her at daycare. 
Aunt Rissa came for a visit this past weekend and had a good time cuddling with Elise, even though she was kind of fussy all weekend. Aunt Rissa got her to fall asleep on Saturday morning though--and enjoyed herself a little nap, too!
Elise had her first overnight stay with Grandma Rhonda while Mommy went out for her first night out on the town in a year (since she got pregnant shortly after her LAST night out on the town last February.) Daddy was on-call as the designated driver in Springfield, so Elise decided to stay with Grandma Rhonda and Papa Terry. She was a very good girl and had fun with her grandparents. Mommy had fun hanging out with her friends, too!
