You're six months old...going on 16. You have started getting into everything...you love to grab big ol handfuls of your brother's hair and you're also fond of cat fur. Zoe is less tolerable of you than she was of Landon. He was nicer. You're a tooter. You sure are a cute tooter though and aside from your aversion to sleep you're pretty awesome and we think we might keep you around. We celebrated your half year the same way we celebrated your brother's. With baby food! You had green beans and until tonight I wasn't sure you'd be a fan of the green bean. Tonight you ate an entire tub! I don't make your baby food...sorry kid. I didn't make Landon's either. Gerber is alright with us. In addition to green beans you've had peas and sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes are by far your favorite and in the last couple of days we can't seem to shovel it in fast enough. You also like the fun little rice sticks called Mum Mums. You are very verbal and you're starting to have quite a little opinion. I think you already understand what "no" means but I think you've also already learned to flash your sweet grin and pretend you don't. I decided to reference the milestone chart to see how you're doing...and let me just say kiddo, you're very, very advanced for your little ol age. You're doing everything and more from the "advanced" column for 6 month olds. You lunge forward, you crawl, you drag object to yourself. You babble, coo, giggle, you say dada, you can finally sit up and you can pass objects between hands. You're already doing things in the advanced column for 7 and 8 month olds! Keep it up kid and your daddy and I will use your 529 for a lake house since you'll surely get an awesome scholarship for college!
At your sixth month checkup you weighed 15 lbs 10 oz (37%), you were 26 1/2" long (72%), and your head circumference was 16 3/4 cm (48%). You wear a size 2 diaper and mostly 6-12 and 9 month clothes. You have 2 teeth with a 3rd almost all the way through...all on the bottom. Your hair is getting longer and still has some strawberry blonde but is mostly blonde. Your eyes are still very blue and your eyelashes are gorgeous. We just think you're about the cutest baby girl that ever lived.
We are enjoying you so much. You are a daddy's girl and he gets all the biggest giggles at our house. Landon get quite a few too...and I think you think I'm alright too.
Now that you're mobile and opinionated I wasn't able to get many good pictures for your sixth month photo shoot. But here are a few not so bad ones.
