6 months!!

Well, Miss Emmaree is officially 1/2 year old. It's gone by in the blink of an eye. She is definitely letting her presence be known more in our home with her squeaks and squeals!

At 6 Months:

Length: 24 1/4 inches (8%)
Weight: 14 lbs 9 oz (20%)
Head: 45%...I think the pigtails made it bigger.

-She can sit all on her own and play with toys.
-Loves to talk and talk and talk.
-Has the sweetest laugh.
-Is very ticklish, especially on her neck.
-Has 2 teeth. Crazy!
-Tried her first solid food on her 6 month birthday; a slice of avocado.
-Has started going through the separation anxiety phase.
-Went to Swiss Days and was the center of attention. We literally couldn't walk from booth to booth without people stopping us to look at her. People even pulled me out of booths because they wanted to see her! She made many ladies squeal at the sight of her cute pigtails! It sure is fun having her and I love the happiness she brings to so many people.
-Takes 2 naps a day.
-Still fits nicely in her 3-6 month clothes.
-Is still a great nurser.
-Is still a horrible sleeper :(
-Chews on everything. Her favorite thing is her binky strap.
-Has tiny feet. Her newborn socks still fit and the shoes I bought for fall are still too big and they are only a size 2!
-Rolls everywhere. She can make it half way across the room in seconds.
-Her favorite toy is still Sophie the Giraffe.
-Can be very bashful.
-Is a joy to have in our family.
-Loves to be out and about. Is much happier when we are out of the house vs. in the house.
-Had her first trip up to the Cabin in Flaming Gorge. The animals loved her noises so much that a deer came right up to the deck to check her out.
