6m old

Half of a year?  Yes, half of a year!
It is hard to believe our little girl has been with us for half of a year.  

 

Unsure of her current height and weight because we haven't made it to the doctor for her 6 month check-up quite yet.  At that appointment she will be administered her last round of shots until she turns 1.  I am looking forward to the break. 

She doesn't have any teeth yet, but not for a lack of teething.  A pearly white will, no doubt, poke through soon, but for now I'm relishing her big gummy smiles. 

Her squeals and smiles warm our hearts and when she sticks out that little tongue we can't help but laugh.

 
She took her first trip away from home this past month; going to Papaw-the-Great and Gigi's house down in Florida.  Then a week later she went on her first vacation, spending an entire week on Hilton Head Island.  We couldn't have asked for an easier baby on vacation.  She was happy, slept decently well, and went with the flow... even though the flow really messed up her daily routine. 

Baby L has attempted sitting up alone, but that round little booty has her toppling right over.  She holds her head level and steady when lifted off of her back.  She really enjoys "flying" through the air, and big brother thinks it's funny to watch her.  We brought the jumper out of the attic and it's getting good use.  If she is anything like Baby J was, it will become her favorite activity.

It has been a joyful 6 months full of growth and change.  I'm certain the next 6 months will prove just as amazing.  We love you dearly precious girl.
