I don't have a recent weight on Elaina because luckily we've been away from the doctors office. My guess is that she weighs about 21 pounds or so. We have almost completely stopped all her baby food and she is eating just about anything we eat (well, you know, what we can make soft enough and chop up enough). So, she looks like she has beefed up to me - the food has helped with that, I am sure.
This weekend has been a fun one for Elaina. Why you ask? Because she went swimming - not once but twice (and she is going again tomorrow, Sunday, with her granny while Erik and I go to the Smokies game). She did not cry but she did not really crack a smile either for the first 10 minutes or so - she is like her daddy and has to take it all in before she can really begin to like anything well. After then, she really started enjoying herself and splashing the water with her hands. She even stuck her face in voluntarily followed by a funny look and some coughing. She is definately going to enjoy the pool - I have been looking forward to this day of being able to take her swimming. Here some photos of the big event (both days)...
This pic is after she got warmed up to the pool - she really was enjoying herself.
This picture is after she planted her face into the float and realized that was not very fun..

Splashing in the water....
I even got her to lay back on her back and float (with me holding her, of course). She didn't seem to mind.
Post pool snack....a vanilla wafer (her favorite).
Just a sweet video of Elaina....
