First of all, I just love this little face...
Second of all, you can't see her face very well because of the shadow, but Ellie has 2 wires attached to her head, one wire attached behind her left ear, and another wire thing going in to her ear. When she was born, they tested her ears at the hospital to see if she was hearing okay. It is amazing that they can test that at such a young age! Unfortunately, after two tests, Ellie's left ear didn't pass the test. So yesterday we took her to the audiologist to have her checked again. Sometimes babies still have fluid in their ears from spending 9 months in said fluid, which makes them fail the test - so waiting a while and testing again will often times come back with a "pass" result. Anyway, she passed! She can hear just fine.
Then this morning I took a bunch of pictures right in a row of Ellie. That's what I do. All day long. Take pictures. Because I just love her adorable faces she makes! The next 5 photos were taken in the space of about 10 seconds.... so animated!
Ellie has struggled to take a bottle. She hates it, actually. Often times, she would be starving and it would still take 5-15 minutes of her screaming and crying for her to even entertain the idea of sucking on any bottle I gave her. She is so dramatic sometimes :) Anyway. After spending a fortune on bottles, we have finally found one she will take with little or no protest at all.
Which one is it, you ask?
With a close vote between Medela, Dr. Browns, Tommee Tippee, Nuk, and Avent, Ellie has made her decision...
Avent it is!
