A Blissful Discovery!



Recently Elise has discovered her thumb. Or discovered how to release it from her fist! Not very long ago she really started getting into sucking on her hand. Its really funny because it's so loud that you can hear it from anywhere in the apartment when she is sucking on her hand. We tried to give her a pacifier one time and we got scared afterwards because she exhibited some strange behavior. So maybe out of necessity she discovered how to separate her thumb from her fist and suck on it. Now she does it every time we put her down to bed. She usually sucks on it a while and falls asleep. Then when we check on her we see something like this:




The other day my friend and neighbor Jeffrey stopped bye, "packin' Zeke"! I thought little Zeke in that pack looked so cute I had to get a picture of them.


It reminded me of a similar moment from five or so months ago. Look at how much the little dude has grown!!
