the little e top ten

my little estelle (e for short) is so fab i cant get enough of her...except when at 2am she wants to hang out...love that but would rather it happen around 2pm...sigh. anyways, she is a great little buddy for me, she has been wedding dress shopping (not for me), out for din din in greek town, to her first dinner in a vineyard in NOTL, to baby showers and wedding showers alike, and she has been an angel about it all. sure she has had her fussy moments but really... shes only a month old!

here are my top ten little e favs to date.... ahem

1. george costanza/dave letterman hair-do - my sweet little girlie had such pretty hair upon her arrival. just a light dusting of blondish reddish hair...nice and evenly dispersed...so sweet. about two days ago the hair at the front started to thin...poor thing. sh now has hair akin to that of dave letterman! so sad...cant wait for the regrowth...and yet so funny i love it!

2. pursed lips face - she does this face where she purses her lips as though she might be saying "ooo i wouldn't do that" and then often fills her pants...kills me!

3. adult bodily noises - she has the sweetest coo of a newborn and then i turn around and shes belching like a trucker...and yet i praise her... lyndon cant figure out why i kiss her and scowl at him for the same noise.

4. shes brilliant - she has been sucking her thumb since she was a week old...great hand eye coordination

5. shes very advanced - she already is laughing up a storm...usually that doesn't happen for another month or two...but clearly she is riddled with genius ;) (see video for proof)

6. morning girl chats - when we wake up for little e's first am feeding when she is done, we just lie in bed and chit chat, shoot the breeze, plan out our day...i love it. i usually get some giggles too

7. make-up lessons - when i get ready in the morning i put little e in her bouncy chair as i get ready ...the only way i can keep her from howling is to talk about why and how im applying makeup and styling my hair...she is right into it.

8. her breath - she has the sweetest freshest coziest (yes it can be cozy) breath ever... i love that little milk mouth!

9. drama queen - she has already started at this early age to fake cough. yes fake cough in order to get attention...love it... im kinda proud actually at her ingenuity ;)

10. polite as always - when little e is resting or feeding or chilling she often has her hands either clasped together or folded under her head...what a doll!

and shes all mine! oh and lyndons too...
