6 months old

Baby Girl you are growing WAY too fast. Make time slow down. Everyday I hang out with Abilynn I love her more and more. The days I work, I can't wait to pick her up and just cuddle. Here is what she has been up too...

*She can crawl. She has scooted around, and done head stands for awhile. One day she decided she wanted the dogs toy and off she went!
*She has two teeth but more are on the way and soon because she is chewing on EVERYTHING and slobbering A LOT!
*She played in the snow for the first time.
*She can start out on her back on the floor and end up sitting on her bum.
*She can sit up by herself without wobbling.
*She can hold onto the side of the pack and play and stand for quite awhile. Aunt Whitney helped her learn this. Now when I try to get her to sit down she will straighten her legs to stand. Little stinker!
*She is now wearing size three diapers. After so many blow-outs in size two, we said good bye and moved up.
*She sleeps for 7 hours straight at night. Wakes up to eat, and then goes back to bed for another 2-3 hours.
*She takes two naps a day, anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours.
*She eats rice cereal and will take the spoon from you if you don't feed her fast enough. We are starting vege's this week!
*She talks and talks and talks. It is more like screaming, but with a smile.
*She is into EVERYTHING. Now that she can crawl the whole house needs to be discovered, every nook and cranny!
*She sat in the front of the shopping cart. I would always leave her in her car seat but decided that she was old enough to sit in the front. She promptly tried to eat the shopping cart handle and got upset when I stopped her.

Rice Cereal

Baby Girl had been showing interest in food for awhile, so Daddy decided to try some. Why not? We were up at my parents house so they had rice cereal, spoons and a high chair. Abilynn really liked the cereal. I am not sure why because the stuff smells funny! She ate a bowl and was content. It also happened to be on her 5 month birthday.

When I feed her now she will try to grab the spoon, as if to tell me 'Mom you are not feeding me fast enough!' She will also lean into the spoon. She loves her food, and always has, so why would it be any different with cereal?!



Faster dad, faster!

Not really sure about it yet.
