6 Months.

IMG_8561_2

This new scrunched up belly laugh is my favorite thing ever.

IMG_8594

I love seeing your toothless mouth crack up.

IMG_8596

Your smile literally lights up the room.

IMG_8174IMG_8247IMG_8371IMG_8376

You smile from Ear to Ear anytime anyone glances in your direction.

IMG_8206_1

The only time you cry is in the evening when you just want to go to sleep. IMG_8253

Between 4 and 6:30.

IMG_8258

I know I’m going to Jinx it, but you’ve been doing awesome with your sleeping.

IMG_8298

I love peeking in on you while you sleep.

IMG_8718

Still so small yet SO much bigger than when you were first born.IMG_8760

You’re working very hard at learning to sit…

IMG_8316

…But you always end up in a face-plant after a couple seconds.

IMG_8333IMG_8334

It’s ok.
IMG_8328
I know that one day, you’ll just get it.

And from then on…

IMG_8349

…Well…

Ya know.

You babble a TON.

Some of that involves high pitched squealing.

Love it.

IMG_8751

You are using your hands like a pro now and you’re learning to put your own paci back in your mouth.

I’ve been looking forward to this.

IMG_8753

Now if time could just freeze.

Right this minute, that would be great.

IMG_8728

You’re sleeping from 6:30 pm to around 6 am.

You get your paci 1-2 times a night.

6:00 am you get an 8oz bottle.

8:00 am you take a little snooze.

Once you wake up, we usually head out to enjoy the beautiful days we’ve been having.

You love going in the stroller. I don’t hear a peep from you and you tend to fall asleep 3 minutes before we get home!!

You get an other 8 oz bottle around 12:00 when you (and Chloe) go down for a nap. 

Your schedule goes crazy at this point and depending on the length of your nap, you’ll usually nap once or twice more in the afternoon.

At 6:30 you get your last 8oz bottle and you’re out.

Ohhh yeah… You also get 2-3 oz of prune juice at some point during your day.

You tend to give back an ounce or so of it soon afterwards.

IMG_8307

I don’t blame you.

IMG_8343

That stuff is NASTY.

Poor midget.

Yes. We still call you midget.

IMG_8356

You are just so dang petite. We can’t help it.

IMG_8586

But don’t worry, you’ll outgrow it soon I’m sure.

IMG_8585

You still enjoy your swing once in a while but you can now grab the butterflies and you alligator roll in it even though you’re strapped in, so your days in this are numbered.            

IMG_8690

You also spend a lot of time here, under your activity mat.IMG_8699

It never ceases to amaze you.

Unless you’ve been there too long in which case you don’t find it fun or funny anymore.

IMG_8354   

I think this may be my new favorite picture of you:  

IMG_8601_3  IMG_8601_5So sweet. So content. So very Lauren. 

I can’t stand it. You smile CONSTANTLY.

IMG_8368

Like, pinch-your-cheeks-and-blow-raspberries can’t stand it.

 

And… What’s awesome?

IMG_8628_3

I think you may just be a mama’s girl.
