Hello!! How hilarous is our sweet pumpkin here? Things are going well in the McAllister household. Fall is in the air and it's kind of exciting to think about the festivities ahead. Life is great and this is a good month for Elisabeth. She has started trying to push herself along with her knees and it's the cutest thing. She had her 6 month check up last week and weighs 18.6 pounds and is 27 1/4 inches long. Long baby! She can only fit in 12 month old clothes. What a perfect chubby girl. She sleeps from 6:30 p.m. to 7 a.m.! Incredible! Paul and I just thank the Lord. She likes to accompany me on shopping trips.
And she likes to take dips in the pool with her handsome dad.
She also likes to go to the park - with her dashing dad.
She enjoyed discovering grass.
She really loves solid foods and so far has eaten cereal, sweet potatoes, peas, and pears.
She has the roundest, squeeziest face!
I am obsessed with watching her sleep. So sweet.
She loves anything new in life and I love watching her discover her world. Just wait until we take her to Hawaii, which is supposed to happen in just a few weeks! So excited about that. Paul, in fact, is in Hawaii right now for a few days of work and my parents are coming into town tomorrow to visit and to go to a gala with me. Paul called me an hour ago and sounded so excited to be there with the palm trees etc.
I also had a birthday just a few days ago. It was nice and simple. Paul took me out to the Dodo restaurant up the street. We sat outside, ate Ahi Tuna steaks and watched the world go by. It couldn't have been better. Life is wonderful at 32 and much better than 23! : )
General conference was also this past weekend and was one of the best I've heard. Everyone had such poignant messages to convey. I was so impressed. Sister Dalton talked specifically to dads about caring for their little girls and she told dads the best thing they can do is love the little girl's mother. So touching. Paul is definitely a great example of that. He makes me feel so loved and secure and I always want to be a better person because of him. What a blessing it is to be with a man who makes me want to be a better person in every way. I love you Paco.
Here are two more pictures of our growing girl.
She was smiling at her irresistible dadums.
