I think it’s time for Elise to have her time in the spotlight… so here is a snapshot of what’s been going on in her life over the past couple of months.

Below are a few of her many faces… it’s usually pretty obvious what she’s thinking 🙂

Hanging out with her Chinese grandpa and taking a ride on the subway!

Elise loves to read and to teach her friend (“bubba” the rabbit) how to play nicely.

Spontaneous photo shoots in her crib…

Elise attracts a crowd wherever we go. They call her “yang wa wa,” or “western style doll.” Sometimes she doesn’t mind being held by strangers and other times she lets everyone know that she’s not having it.

Our nickname for her is “Lady,” so we shot this picture in South Korea. Also, the lady loves to stare at herself in the mirror 🙂

Below is one of my favorite pictures… hanging out in the airplane bassinet!

She wanted us to buy this teddy bear for her, but we told her it wouldn’t fit in our apartment.

Counseling sessions have already started…

I’ll end with a video compilation from over the past couple of months to show a bit more of her personality:

Overall, she’s the sweetest baby and really fun to be around. She sleeps great but many times is up well before 6am, leaving us feeling a bit like Yoda…
