Party!

 Some pictures Mommy took of me today...

Went to Grant's birthday party today.  I loved watching everyone, but I preferred to be held by Mommy or Daddy to begin with.  I was then okay going to Mommy's uncle Kody {he has hair under his nose}.  I eventually was then okay to let anyone hold me.

Hang on

I found the handle on one of the drawers.

I looked out the window and what did I see...a big machine moving all the snow!

Tried out my sippy cup, and I am still figuring out how to get the water out.

On my Hands and Knees

 I was really wanting to get my hands on this toy.  It was just out of my reach so I inched forward to get it.  While I was figuring out how to get it I worked really hard and was able to get up onto my hands and knees.  I was only up for a little while, and I haven't been able to crawl yet, but I am working on it.

 

 

I got caught!  I was able to find my way to some cords, but Mommy found me.  I thought that I had hidden so well.

 

Just playing in my highchair.   I like to be higher up.

 

 Daddy surprised Mommy with some flowers today.  I think they are so beautiful, and would like to play with them.

 

Drool proof???

I love phones!  I am always trying to get my hands on one.  I often take the phone from Mommy when she is talking to Mama Holly.

Today Mommy was so nice to let me play with her cell phone.  I had so much fun!  I had to move a lot to get to it, and I even did some army crawling{more like rock back and forth on my tummy while reaching for the phone} to reach it.

Relaxing Sunday

Mommy got a shot of the rolls on my legs.  Mommy and Daddy think that they are so cute.

We now have church in the morning so we have most of the day to just relax and spend time together as a family.

I had fun sitting...

Chewing on my toes...

Playing with my new teeth...

Finding my toes again...

and again...

I also found the leg of the coffee table, and tried to chew it as well.

Solids...Take 1

 I got a highchair today.

I love it!

 {Is this what it means to eat solids?}

I love my spoon, now where's the food?

That's food?

Let me try it out.

I even get the bowl of food to myself!?!

This is so exciting!!!

I got the spoon in my mouth, but where did the food go?

Eating this solid food stuff was interesting.  I love to chew on the spoon, but the food itself will take some time to get used to.  Daddy did a good job feeding me, but I prefer doing it myself {though I don't get as much food that way, unless Daddy pushes it into my mouth when I bring the spoon to my lips}.

Ballerina at six months

Six months...I've made it!  I just keep growing and learning all the time!  This is what I am doing now...

~I now can roll over from my back to my tummy
~I am now taking baths in the big tub, and I love it!
~I had my first tooth pop through, quickly followed by my second
~I can now roll completely over, and over, and over again!
~At first I could only roll in one direction, but not anymore!
~Let's just say that I am able to get around a lot more!
~Clicking my tongue is so much fun to do all the time
~I am really finding my voice, babbling, singing, and what not
~I have been working on my army crawl
~Do you have any idea how fun it is to splash in the tub?  I discovered this out, and it's amazing!
~Yesterday I said da da, na na together.  That got Mommy and Daddy excited!

Some snapshots from today...

Mommy found me this way when she came to get me when I didn't fall asleep in my crib.  This is the first time I have gotten out of my blankets and I turned myself so that my head and feet are where my hands usually are.  I had fun just playing.

For my six month birthday, Mommy worked really hard and made me a few nice things.  She made me a fluffy tutu with a matching bracelet and bow.  These go perfectly with my ballet shoes.  Now I can be a little ballerina!  Here I am in my tutu...

My size right now...

Clothes~3-6 months and starting to wear some 6-9 months
Diaper~Size 3
Weight and Length will have to wait until I go to the doctor in a few weeks.

Reverse!

My second tooth decided to pop up today.  At first Mommy thought it was just one tooth, but then she realized that it was to wide to be just one.  She was right, my second tooth just came through right next to my first one.

 

Another development... I have mastered going in reverse!

I am really good at getting myself wedged under things, like chars.

The problem is...I don't know how to get myself out!

I will have to work on that one!

While Mommy and I were out shopping, I got to pick out some flowers for Daddy!  I loved the bright yellow ones and let Mommy know that we needed to get them.  I like them so much, and I am glad that I could give them to Daddy to brighten his day!

 Love you Daddy!!!
