6 months!!

Halfway to ONE! Holy taledo! This past 6 months have flown by wayyy too quickly!  I need you to slow down and stop growing so fast!!

This past few weeks have been extremely busy with birthdays, 1/2 birthdays, and momma's first mothers day!!  I couldn't ask for anything more! You have definitely brought a ton of happiness, laughter, and fun into our lives Daylynn!!! We wouldn't want it any other way, so thank you for being our little blessing!!

Now on to your 6 month wellness check and milestones!!

*You are now weighing in at a whopping  17 lbs 3 oz!! Big girl!! 75%

*You are measuring 25 3/4 inches!  You're only at 50% for height but thats ok, average is good!

*Some major milestones this past month are going from laying on your tummy to sitting up on your own!! You shocked me at the doctors office when you did it! You must have been putting on a show! (Insert mom bragging-the doctor said she was very impressed with you and your development, she said you were doing things an 8 month was doing! Way to go little miss)

*You are getting very close to crawling! We are giving it a week, we shall see.  You've been up on your knees, rocking back and forth, and getting on your toes in plank position (which is hilarious might I add).  You are just stuck at moving forward with your crawling, but you got going backwards down! 

*FIRST TOOTH!! Ohh my heavens, I've been waiting and waiting for this, as you have been too, I'm sure!  You have had the worst blow outs all last week!  It was a long few weeks of constantly changing your diapers and clothes!!  Your tooth finally popped through and tada no more blow outs!! (for now)  Your poor buns are finally looking much better as well! That was worse on me then you I think because you were still happy as ever and never cried when changing your pants! (I'm sure down the road you are going hate me for writing about this :) --sorry Daylynn, I love you!)

*Your sleeping was going really great for awhile there, sleeping 7 hours, then waking up for a bottle then back down until time to get ready.  This was pretty nice for mom when you were in this routine.  Yeah, I'd love for you to sleep all night, but up once I can't complain!  Here the last few nights, however, you have not slept well at ALL!  Wearing mom out, that's for sure!

*You love love your bath time! You are now sitting up in your tub instead of laying back, you hate laying back and want to be sitting up like the big girl you are!

*Loving baby food! We've been on oatmeal with bananas for breakfast, rice cereal and a veggie for lunch, and rice cereal, a fruit, and a meal like turkey and squash for dinner.  She loves all foods so far except the meats by them self.  I even tried mixing with the rice cereal and that didn't fly either, we had to try the dinner meals instead so you were still getting that iron and yep you LOVE them!!  The week of our blow outs, the doctor suggested sticking with the starches of rice, bananas, and carrots and not sure it made a difference but you love them so it was all good!  I've even tried some of the sweet potato puffs broken up and you cant get enough of those either!  You're a great little eater!!

*Growing out of your clothes ridiculously fast.  I tried putting on 9 month capris the other day and sadly they didnt fit!! Whaaat! Most clothes you wear are on track 6-9 month but some are 9 month. 

Hmm, there is so much more because you are constantly changing every day! Oh we just love your happy, giggly self!!
