6 Months

Summer flew by and now Daddy is back at work, and a new routine begins. The last 2 weeks of summer we didn't do much, went to the park a lot, went to the corn and apple festival with Grandma Bev and Grandpa Ron. We had a going away party for Uncle Scotty, and we've had some fires in the backyard. I really like fires. We didn't make it to the pool for one last swim, it just suddenly got too cold, good thing we are going to visit Scotty soon and we get to stay in a hotel. Mommy and Daddy went out last night for the first time, Gma Carilee and Grandpa stayed with me, but I didn't even know because I was sleeping!

Today I am 6 months old. Wow! I am growing up so fast. I am 16 lbs, 2 oz. I am a very happy girl and a very very busy girl, only two or three short naps a day, and still up 4 times a night for milk. I've tried a few new foods, apples, pears, and bananas. So far I have liked them all, but the veggies are next to come, we will see how that goes. Now that school has started, I love sitting on the front steps and watching the kids going to and from school. Outside is my favorite place to be, I'm going to get a cozy jacket and ski pants so I can still go outside when winter comes.

My voice is starting get a little louder, and I'm talking a lot now. Singing is still what I do best, and I really like it when Mommy & Daddy sing nursery rhyms. I am extremely ticklish, I giggle like crazy! I also think that our puppy, Ozzy is very funny. When I go in the backyard and she jumps and barks I just laugh at her. I also am a lot cuddlier than I used to be. I will give hugs and kisses now and dig my head into peoples chests. I always need to know who's holding me, I turn my head around, get and good look, and then grab their face. The only things that I don't really like right now is going down for a nap which isn't anything new, and having a diaper change, and getting dressed. This only started in the last week, and I am very difficult. Sometimes mommy has to get me dressed on the front step because that is the only place where I am relaxed.

Mommy and Daddy know that I have a lot in store for them for the next six months. I have been a great baby girl for the first six, they have watched me grow from a tiny little baby, to a big baby girl. From lying in one spot with my eyes closed to babbling and moving all around not wanting to miss out on anything. I will always know that I am very special and my Mommy and Daddy love me sooo much.
