Twenty-One Weeks Old

Elizabeth is 21 weeks old today!

She has become such a sociable baby. Strangers come up to her and she smiles at them. She is also much better while in the stores. She likes to look around at everything. This is a complete change from the baby I once took shopping who screamed while I tried to pick out some clothes to buy. It's so nice to go shopping with her now.

She is pulling herself up well now. If you hold out your hands she will grab on to them and lift herself up to a sitting position. She will also pull herself into a standing position if she locks her legs up.

Tonight we went to our neighbor's house for his daughter's graduation party. Elizabeth got a lot of attention from our neighbor at the party - he just loves babies and he's looking forward to the arrival of his granddaughter.

When we got home Elizabeth took a really good nap. She was so deep in sleep she didn't want to wake up.

Here she is still asleep when I tried to wake her up to eat and then to go to bed for the night:
