Time sure does fly. Emily is now 6 months old. It feels like she was only 3 months a few days ago. She had her doctor's visit this past Friday. She is now 15 lbs 7 oz and 26 inches tall. She is in the 40th percentile for weight and 55th percentile for height. This not really surprising. Based on the height of her mother she will not be very tall anyways. Everyone always laughs at her short little legs. Emily is now eating baby food. She is on her third day of sweet potatoes. We will try peas tomorrow. The doctor says we should see a tooth pretty soon. I hope this is the reason that Emily is a little fussy everyday and at night. She is not bad at all (compared to some stories I have heard about teething) but you can tell that her gums bother her sometimes by the way she shoves everything in her mouth. Emily now likes to cuddle and is starting to make some sounds like mama and bababa. It is so cute when she hugs up against you and gets a little grin on her face. There's nothing that compares to that feeling. Emily has also started to push herself backwards. She is able to get her butt up and get up on her hands but does not know how to move forward yet. we think within the next month or so she will be crawling.
We recently moved into our new house. Grandma Mack was nice enough to come watch Emily while we moved and also our but mostly hanging pictures. My friend Kate was in town for a couple days as well. This was the first time she has seen Emily. I think Kate is going to wait awhile before having kids after her visit. It was great having her here though.
Here's Emily eating her bunny.
Emily playing in her exersaucer.
That's a tired baby. This was last night.
Here are some videos. One of Emily eating sweet potatoes for the first time, being a chatter box, and one of her cuddling.
