6 months

Once again I am late in posting about Lily’s milestones this month, at least I’m consistent :)

We have been noticing more and more how quickly our baby girl is growing from a helpless little baby to a very curious little girl.

6 month Stats

Height: 27 inches (90%)

Head: 17 5/8 inches (90-97%)

Weight: 16lbs 14oz (50-75%)

Lily, at 6 months:

• you love to roll all over and we often find you wedged against the furniture.
• you mostly roll to your left. If we had a big enough room you would roll yourself around and around in a big circle.
• you are giggling more and more everyday, but we still get the best giggles right before bed
• your Daddy loves to see your big smile when he gets home from work
• you started rolling over in your bed. We think it’s super cute to see you sleeping on your stomach

 

  

you are very chatty. Daddy has nicknamed you “jabber-gums”

your favorite thing to say it “ya-ya-ya”  We’ve also heard you say “ma-ma” a few times (Mommy wishes you would say it more!)

you got your first tooth about a week before turning 6 months and now you have another one too!

your hair is getting lighter and lighter

you are enjoying trying new foods (for the most part). So far you have eaten bananas, apples, pears, carrots, green beans, prunes, rice cereal, and barley

prunes are the only thing you didn’t like (who could blame you!) everything else you’ll at least eat if it’s mixed with cereal.

Daddy got you a baby doll from his company party that has a binky attached. You try to suck on the baby’s binky all the time and get frustrated because it won’t fit in your mouth.

we love your big smiles and happy kicks when we get you out of your bed

We are excited for you to move up from the portable bassinet to your crib this month! Just another part of the tiny baby you used to be that we have to let go. We love you sweet girl!
