6 months old!!!
It seems like just yesterday when we came home from the hospital with our tiny little newborn, barely weighing six pounds. Now, six whole months have passed, and there has been a whole world of changes!! Friday she turned six months old and also had her checkup at the doctor's office. She's weighing in at 14 lbs. 2 oz. and is 25 1/4 inches long. She's still on the petite and dainty side, but very healthy and doing great. She's at the age now where she's really coming into her own. She's very curious and is constantly lunging and reaching for anything she thinks may be within her reach! She's gotten very good with the fine motor skills of her hands and loves holding on to things and switching from hand to hand. She's not sitting alone yet, but will sit up for a few moments before toppling over! She started rolling a couple months ago, but would only do it occasionally. Now, she's rolling like crazy! She goes back to front, then to her back again. However, when she rolls onto her belly when she's asleep, she cries instead of falling asleep on her belly or rolling back...sounds like another little girl I know : )!! Otherwise, she's sleeping pretty well at night. She still gets up a couple times a night to feed, but we're hoping that will start to diminish since we're starting her on solids (hopefully that's not wishful thinking!). She had a very busy month with lots of visitors and a lot of firsts. She really is a very good baby and is so happy and smiley. She has given us so much joy in our lives. Even though we can't just get up and go like we used to, we definitely wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. We're so thankful to the Lord for blessing us with our precious baby girl.
