6 Months

Happy half birthday to me! Well I've been in this world for 6 months, and what a whirlwind it's been...I've grown a ton and have learned, well, everything I know so far.

New developments:

I'm 15 lbs / 13 oz and 26" - this puts me at the 50th percentile for height and weight - a new record for me! (I was born at 10% for weight at 25% for height). The doctor said Mommy and Daddy are doing a good job :)

I've expanded my cereal repertoire: rice (my fave), oatmeal, and whole wheat (the worst). Next on the list is mixed. I've also started eating carrots! I like them mixed with my cereal, but gag on them plain (Mommy calls me a drama queen). I also like to hold a carrot while I'm eating. Also I've discovered that if I blow when the spoon gets to my mouth, I can make the cereal go everywhere and a funny noise comes out of Mommy's mouth.

I can almost sit on my own now (I may topple over once in awhile), and I feel like a big girl when I'm in my high chair. I also am very eager to stand but don't really care much about learning to crawl.

I LOVE my jumperoo - it lets me jump up and down and it makes funny noises when I do.

I like to hold my feet, and occasionally put them in my mouth. Sometimes I help Mommy out by holding my feet when she's changing my diaper.

I've discovered my tongue and the many noises it can make.

I HAVE TEETH!! 2 of them. They grew in together, bottom center teeth. right now they just feel like slivers (more like knives actually) - and oh what pain! i'm glad they are thru, now I don't ever have to worry about teething pain again....right??
