My Favorite 6 Month Old

The babe is six months old.  A half a year already!  She's pretty fun:)  Usually.


She just started cereal about a week ago.  We give it to her right before bed in hopes of her sleeping all night.  And I'd say it definitely helps, but so far she just can't quite make it to what we think is an acceptable hour of waking up!  If she goes all night with no feeding, then she'll probably start making her presence known around 6:30-7:00.  It's just not quite enough sleep for her (who am I kidding- it's not quite enough for ME!) and when she wakes up that early it kind of throws her off and she tends to be a little extra tired and/or cranky for the day.  Whereas if she has a little middle of the night snack she'll sleep until 8:00 or so.  We'll just keep working on it I guess!


She's also officially sitting up!  She can do it unassisted but is pretty unstable still and doesn't last a real long time.  But if she's sitting at her little piano she can sit for a long time playing the piano and just looking at the great big world around her.  She thinks she's pretty hot stuff too:)


Aaaaand it might not be too much longer before she's crawling.  Ho hum.  I hope she holds off on that for a while longer!  At least until after Christmas so I can have one nice peaceful year of Christmas decorations.  I would much rather her just sit and look at all the pretty shiny things than try to tear them down and eat them.  But this girl does planks quite regularly.  Sometimes getting up on her hands and knees and sometimes her hands and toes.  So it's just a matter of time before she figures it out and takes off.  Aye yi yi...  Bring on the baby gates and plastic outlet covers!


What a goofy girl!
