Six

6 incredible things about our 6-month old daughter on the 6th day of the 6th month:

1. She smiles most of the time and sleeps well. The exceptions to her being happy are if she is hungry, tired or in pain. Those things are generally rare. She even puts herself to sleep now without too much of a fight (sometimes).

2. She is starting to get places. She will lie on the floor and REACH for her favorite toys, but when she crawls, she tends to move backwards.

3. On the other hand, if you leave her alone for a minute lying on the floor, you can come back to see she's rolled far far away from her starting point.

4. She likes to sit up and will do it for a long time. She tends to look BUSY BUSY BUSY when she's got her toys around her.

5. She eats three kinds of cereal and just finished trying carrots. Tonight I need to boil and puree up her first sweet potato.

6. Two of her most exciting events each day are (1) seeing the cat and (2) seeing her dad.

Happy half-birthday, ND!!
