Half Birthday

Hard to believe Camryn is already 6 months old!  Where has the time gone?  

At 6 months Cammie is doing SO many things like....
  • weighing in at 18 pounds and in the 85th percentile in weight for her age (WOW! She went up over 3 pounds in 2 months!)
  • measuring 27 1/4 inches long and in the 95th percentile for height for her age
  • wearing a size 2/3 diaper (2's still fit, but are definitely getting snug, while 3's are a little too big)
  • primarily wears 6 month size clothes, however the pants are beginning to get too short (as always)
  • LOVES to eat, especially from a spoon (this is an understatement...this girl wants to eat all the time....clearly why she has grown SO much over the last few months!)
  • still eats between 5 and 6 ounces at a time, every 3 hours or so
  • sitting up on her own...not sure when this happened...two weeks or so ago she couldn't sit up by herself, but one day this week I sat her up to "practice" and she could do it all alone (Dr. Morgan told us at her 6 month appointment that Cammie will likely be pulling up and crawling before the average age due to her sitting up strength...dad is super excited about that...mom is a little nervous  :)
  • is still our fair skinned, strawberry blonde, blue-eyed girl!  Looks like this fair skin is here to stay...had to buy her an SPF 50+ sun hat for the baseball games, the pool and the beach! :)
  • still LOVES her Jump-a-Roo...it's pretty much her favorite toy! :)  We LOVE watching her bounce and bounce!
  • loves toys that light up and make noise
  • likes to eat her feet! :)
  • babbles constantly...I think she will have her mom's love of talking  :)
  • continues to LOVE the puppies...we love to watch her face light up when they walk within her sight...she is discovering their ears, eyes. etc. :)
  • experienced her first virus....that was not fun! :(
  • is on the move for as much as a 6 month can be...rolling, scooting, etc.
  • is the absolute love of our life....every day is so much brighter because of our Camryn! :)

    The best picture we have been able to take in a few days...Cammie has not been a fan of the camera in the last week that she has been sick., however she IS ready for the beach this summer! :)
