On the Move!

Well I suppose I should get out the gates for the stairs....

 

 

6 months??  Really??!!

Caroline.....6 months!!

Half a year!!! 

 

Oh my goodness, it cannot have been that long already!!

 

If this little (ish) butterball wasn't so stinkin' cute and have such a personality, I would be so upset at her growing up.

 

 

So, let's see what we are up to as a big "Half Year-er".

 

She has officially mastered the art of sitting up. 

Pretty slumpy at first, but she has gotten all the way up to sitting straight!

 

We pulled out the highchair last month and then started introducing food, so she has gotten really used to hanging out in the highchair. 

 

Food is fun....and messy! 

 

And clearly, the highchair has gotten comfy enough to double as a napping location..... 

 

We have tried puffs too!!  This kid likes to eat! 

 

Since Landon has been in school and then some evening activities too, it has given Avery and Caroline time to hang out and do things together.  Those two are so cute when they want to be.

 

Her personality is taking off and she is starting to get quite a list of interests....

 

Flying:

 

Sleeping....anywhere: 

 

Crawling.....backwards! 

 

Bath time sitting up and playing in the faucet: 

 

Tupperware: 

 

Reading.....while teething 

 

Did I mention Tupperware??  And teething?...... 

 

She had her first Halloween too!  Such a cute little Ladybug!

 

Already learning how to hoard the candy and dig in! 

 

Officially, she is growing just fine and dandy!

She is 25 3/4 inches and 16 lb. 10 oz.

Even after over 2 months, she is still teething, although there are no teeth.....

She can crawl backwards and get from all fours to sitting and then back on the move.

She is starting to pull up on things (yikes!!!)

She sleeps all 12 hours of the night and 2-3 hours at nap time.

So far, she has not turned down any food!!  She has had peas, carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans, and squash.

We are getting so close to hearing a definite "Mama"!!  I swear I have heard "I love you Mom"......

And Oh how this kid giggles!!!  She is happy ALL the time!

 

Happy Half Year Caroline!
