Six Months Old

Yesterday was Evie's first half-birthday.  Hard to imagine she is already six months old!  She weighs about 21 pounds and is wearing size 9 month clothes (and some 12 month already).  She loves sitting up, which she does just fine on her own now.  She still loves Wilson, and [finally] she also loves watching Molly.  She talks to both of them, and they always make her laugh when they're in her sight (usually just walking through, minding their own business).  She eats four times a day, at 6am, 10am, 1:30pm and 5pm, give or take 30 minutes or so.  She is still usually taking three naps a day, one at 8am, one around noon, and often one around 3.  Her naps at school have been pretty short (she went for three full days last week), but at least she is sleeping.  She is a great night-time sleeper, and goes to bed at 7pm and wakes up between 5:30 and 6am.  To be honest, she has been doing this since she was about 9 weeks old, but I've always been scared to put in writing for fear of jinxing it!!  Fingers crossed...  I'm still not taking it for granted!  She babbles a lot, but has yet to say her first word.  Can't wait for that!  And we have started her on cereal, only once a day (that's worthy of its own post, coming soon!).  She goes to Dr. Stone for her 6 month check-up next week, so I will post all of her official stats then.  In the meantime, here is our sweet little chunk...










 PS- I'm trying to convince Gavin that we need a new camera, so hopefully these pictures will be a LOT better next month!!  :)  They all look blurry to me without the flash, but the flash is long and blinding (seriously, out of the ordinary BLINDING).  Gav, are you reading?  :)

  1. She is so cute! I really want to see her. I'm glad she is doing well at school. I'm sure the teachers love her and that she gets lots of attention! Good luck with the new camera. It is very obvious when we got ours. The pictures before were so bad! I miss you! --Jenn
