Eleanor is such a good baby. She sleeps like a champ. Seriously. We moved her bedtime from 11 pm to around 9:30 since she seemed to be getting fussy around then and was really tired. At first I was worried since I didn't want her waking up multiple times in the night, but for the past 3 weeks or so she's been sleeping for 10 hour stretches at night. No midnight feedings or anything! I'm not accustomed to this since it took Ethan about 10 months to get to that point. Maybe even longer, I don't remember. They say big babies sleep well, but I think it just depends on the baby since Ethan was just as big and he was a rotten sleeper.
Eleanor is quite the roller and anytime we lay her on her back she rolls onto her stomach. She gets frustrated pretty easily on that side and has difficulty rolling back over so she needs some assistance. The problem with her rolling over is that being on her stomach typically makes her spit up. Like so,
Other things Eleanor is interested in is pretty much anything she can get in her mouth. This includes, fists, toys, bibs and blankets. This does not include rice cereal. It's near impossible to feed her when she grabs her bib and shoves it in her mouth. Silly girl.
Eleanor has also discovered her voice over the last week. She is constantly squealing and yelling. Pretty soon she'll be singing duets with her brother. He will gladly play the 4-keyed piano during their little ditties.

Must....squeeze....her
Such a big girl! And cute, too. I love your pictures of her.
I'm glad you said that Ethan didn't sleep through the night until 10 months. Makes me feel a little better that Afton is still having problems in that department.
She is so sweet!! Beckett just had his one month and is pretty large and in charge himself. If he could get the sleeping thing down like Eleanor that would be A-Mazing!!
Cuteness! Great photos (and I love the headband!)
