Even with the extra day in February this year, the month seemed to just FLY by. And even though we're anxious for spring (aka warmer weather), February was a lot of fun for the Carlson's. Here's a little February Ella recap:
- Ella turned 4 months (in fact, she's now almost 5 months!!!) old!
- Ella laughs! This is different from the "giggle." She truly laughs and it is about the sweetest thing in the whole entire world to hear.
- Hello world but hello FEET! Forget the toys. Forget the pacifier. Forget the fingers. It's all about the toes. Grabbing them is fun but sucking on them is even better.
- Squirmy bug at night. On several occasions when Erika comes to get Ella in the morning she is quite astonished to find that Ella is NOT where Erika left her! Sometimes she rotates 45 degrees in her crib, other times it's a complete 180 turn - her feet were where her head was! Regardless, Ella is still the superb sleeper....pulling in 9-11 hours each night and waking up all smiles and ready to eat!
- Twinkle, twinkle little star. We all know Erika can't sing but you'll have a hard time convincing Ella that her mommy can't carry a tune. We're not sure what is about "Twinkle twinkle Little Star" but Ella just seems to LOVE this song. And boy do we mean LOVE it. She loves it so much when mommy sings this song (and only THIS song) that it'll even stop her fussiness and bring a smile to face, almost instantaneously. We love how much she loves it....instant happiness!

Looking great, Ella!! Love those cheeks :)
Landon LOVED Twinkle, twinkle at this age, too! We've moved on to only songs that have hand motions now. The Wheels on the Bus, and If you're happy and you know it are the two currently en vogue!
