She has this big happy grin that she does many times a day, and a 'shy' smile where she'll smile with her eyes and mouth but then covers up her face with her hands like she has a little secret. She can bear some weight on her legs and likes to 'stand up' with our help, and holds her head up very steady whenever we hold her upright.
Her hands are always in or near her mouth, and she can hold her two hands together and twist them around. She is fascinated by her hands and will follow them with her eyes with a lot of interest. She startles MUCH less frequently, really only when she is asleep and hears a loud noise like a dog barking or kitchen cabinet closing or something similar.
Ella is just such a wonderful baby - she is happy, content 99% of the time, sweet and smiley and loves to cuddle. She definitely has her moments of general fiesty-ness but that's just a part of her charm - she knows what she likes!
Her eyes are still a bright blue and so full of expression, and her cheeks become more and more kissable every single day. Her eyelashes are so long and her little nose and mouth are just perfect. She is truly an angel!!
Here are some pics of her 13th week:
Holding her binky - she can take it out of her mouth and hold it (just can't get it quite back in yet!)
Passed out after a big breakfast (notice the drunken face and milk dripping out of her mouth)
Enjoying her Spider Chair
