Squirmy Six Month Old

Caroline made me work for the 6th month picture.  She was all over the place & with the 20 pictures I took 10 had a foot in her mouth. To say she has become more active is an understatement. 

• She is rolling & scooting.  She doesn't enjoy being on her tummy so I haven't seen her go from her back to her stomach except once in the baby monitor and she screamed for me to make the world right again.
• She is wearing size 2 pampers.  I have one box left from my diaper shower so I have been saving up my coupons in preparation to start buying them.
• She eats banana oatmeal in the morning before school, a fruit or vegetable at daycare & oatmeal at dinner.

Foods She Likes            Foods She Hates

squash                   peas

carrots                 apples 

             pears             sweet potatoes

                                                  peaches                

                                                           

                                                 bananas                    

• She is drinking 5 to 6 oz {except at daycare- everyday is different}
• She wakes up one time at night around 2 am.  Her daddy has been taking this feeding. During the summer we were both staying up until she woke up and then going to bed afterward.  Now since I have gone back to work I really appreciate him taking this feeding.
• I will not have to teach Caroline about stranger danger.  She does not readily go to people she does not know.  Day care I think will help her adjust to other people.  She has to warm up first before she will let  anyone hold her. This has just starting happening so I hope it isn't permeant. 
• With that said she is happy and laughs all the time. She "talks"- the sounds she is making is "ba"& "da".  I am afraid her first words are going to be "Shut up Lexi!" or "No Pip!" because she hears it all the time.
• All her 3 month clothes have been put away.  She is in a couple of 3-6 months, mostly 6 month, & a few 6-9 month.

She still loves the bath, sucking on wash rags, and getting her gums brushed.

The head nursery worker Debbie thinks she may be teething but we still haven't seen anything yet.

I can't believe it has been 6 months.  She has added so much to our lives & we love her so much!
