Half a year old??

Seriously, 6 months old? Good grief- where has the time gone? I miss the newborn days because she was so little and new, but I absolutely love watching her learn and experience new things now that she’s older!

Ashleigh went to the doctor for her 6 month check up on St. Patrick’s Day. Even though she wore green, she still got “pinched”- she got 2 shots, but she handled them like a pro… just a couple of tears! She weighs 13lbs, 8oz and she is 25 inches long. She’s a growing girl!

At 6 months, Ashleigh….

-is rolling all over the place!

-has a favorite toy- her ladybug!

-is trying to figure out how to sit up.

-loves to stand up (with help, of course!)

-laughs and giggles at funny things.

-is sleeping 9-10 hours straight at night. (YAY!!)

-LOVES Hobbes our cat. She likes Arden too, but she is very interested in the cat!

-is wearing size 1-2 diapers.

-loves being outside.

-is still mostly wearing 3 month clothing, but she is starting to fit into some of her 6 month outfits.

-loves when we wiggle our fingers against her lips when she’s “talking” (funny video coming soon!)

-loves going on walks in the stroller.

-likes to “read” books.

-still loves to put everything in her mouth.

-is showing interest in our food (she’ll be starting solid foods as soon as I make some for her!)

-is ALWAYS smiling! She’s such a happy girl! :)

-is sleeping without being swaddled! And, it wasn’t too hard of a transition, thank goodness!

Our girl is getting so big!  Smile
