Six Months

Birthday: 

January 15, 2013

So tired

Weight: 

{Guessing} 13 pounds 2 Ounces

Height: 

{Guessing still} 25 1/4

You think that is your paci :)

Sleep: 

Still sleeping about 8 hours, however, this has been a rough month with growth spurts and teething so sleeping lately consists of waking up every hour or two. Naps have been all over the place since its summer and we have been on vacation, but if I'm lucky, you still gets 2-3 naps a day that are about 2 hours long.

Working on sitting up

Bedtime: 

9:30 {sometimes later depending on what is happening :)}

Favorite Toy: 

Oh, goodness... Practically anything that you can get those little hands on. I think you really like car keys and Mommy's mason jar tumbler, mostly for the straw, and definitely cell phones. You know how to work the iphone better than Momma it seems like.

*You have quite the 'tude' you let us know when you are mad and if you dont like something! Stinker!

Happy half birthday my sweet, sweet love!! I cant believe you are already six months old! Its a bittersweet moment for this Mommy. I love getting to be your Mommy, and I love watching you grow up. You are such a joy to spend everyday with. I wouldn't have it any other way. You are becoming quite the character and I can only imagine what that little personality will be like one day as you get older. Feels like I was just bringing you home yesterday. Remember this, someday when you have children, time will go by within the blink of an eye. I cherish getting to take in every moment and experience every "first" with you. Its been a privileged to have the greatest, happiest daughter known to man. You turning six months feels like a huge milestone and a whole new beginning that I dont think we are really ready for, but I am excited for whats to come and will take it all in and learn as we go. Thanks for being so trusting. I love you with all my heart. You are my pride and joy. I am one lucky Mom!!
