Six months old

Our sweet Audrey is half a year old today! She has changed quite a lot in the last month....

She can sit up alone for a short period of time; she usually tips herself over because she's so fascinated by her feet.

She has also started babbling, primarily saying d, b, l, and m sounds. She's always been our talker, but now she's getting closer to actual talking!

She was sick for the first time this month with what our pediatrician thinks were two back-to-back colds. She has been feeling pretty miserable for about two weeks, but over the last two days we've been seeing her happy disposition and smiles again.

And to top off not feeling well, the teething of course continues. In fact, she got her first tooth yesterday!

Audrey's greatest love is still her wonderful big sister. She twists her head every which way in order to get a glimpse of Ellie whenever she hears her.

Audrey is growing growing growing. She has started eating rice cereal and applesauce. This weekend she'll be trying peas. We tried mixing some soy formula into her rice cereal a few times in preparation of the day that she will need to have formula from a bottle. She didn't react well to the soy and we're concerned that she may be allergic. We've held off on trying it too much. Nothing seems to affect her weight gain though - today she weighs 19 pounds 8 ounces!








Happy Half-Birthday, Baby Girl!
