Charleigh Grace at 6 months

Happy Half Birthday my little nugget!!

Today you are 6 months old.  Wow.  It seems like just yesterday...and yet seems like many years since you came into our lives.  (maybe the lack of sleep makes it seem like forever ago!) :)  You are beginning to show your own little personality, and have become quite the social butterfly!  

Likes: Chewing on EVERYTHING! (but still no teeth!)

Pulling hair-your eyes light up every time someone's hair is by your little hands...and then you YANK!

Giggling

Smiling at everyone who will say hello to you

Being outside

Laying on your tummy

Cuddling with mommy and daddy in the mornings

When daddy makes you "fly"

Eating big girl food...you would eat 5 jars if I let you!

Being swaddled (only during nap time)

Bathtime

Dislikes: SLEEPING! (for the last two weeks you have not slept very well...but we are beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel...phew!)

How solid food doesn't quite agree with your tummy :( (we had to stop for the time being because it is making your tummy hurt...but you love eating!)

When a toy is taken away (you start to pout)

Sitting in one place for very long

Getting your diaper changed...you want to roll around everywhere!

You are such a joy to be around my baby girl! You have a lot more hair coming in on your little head...but it is SUPER blonde and feels coarse.  No teeth yet.  You are trying to talk, and you do a very good job at babbling and blowing raspberries (especially when you eat-the food sprays everywhere and you smile).  You have a "fake cough" that you do a lot-and when mommy or daddy mimics it you get a huge smile on your face.  This Friday is your 6 month Dr's apt so we will see how much you have grown!  I love every minute spent with you (even the ones at 2am in the morning).  You are such a joy and blessing to us!  We love you so very much and are loving watching you grow! (even though we want to to slow down a little bit...you are growing too fast!) :)  

XXXXOOOOOOOxoxoxoxoxoxox,

mommy & daddy
