Six Months!

How in the world are you SIX months old?? I knew time passed by quickly with Griffin but this has been insane. We feel like just yesterday we brought you home and you stole all of our hearts! Your doctors appointment isn't until Wednesday so I am not certain how much you weigh, although when I plopped you on our scale it said 16.4 lbs. Which is really funny to me because that is exactly double your birthweight (8.2lbs) and that is what doctors recommend you weigh at 6 months. So if that's even close - way to go! You are getting more and more personality every day as seen by the pictures and we can't think of a single thing to complain about! We are so blessed. You eat amazing - we are up to 3 meals a day now and this month I will start adding in snacks. You still drink milk 4 times a day and are up to around 30 ounces total. You have liked all of your fruits and veggies and you love your fruit and oatmeal. You are still working on sitting and can do so for little bits at a time. You have begun to play in your exersaucer and love standing and putting weight on your legs. You take 2 naps a day. Your morning one lasts around an hour and your afternoon nap is usually about two. You sleep a full 12-13 hours every night. You are an AMAZING sleeper. You LOVE your paci and still never really cry but will whine a bit if your paci falls out and you want it back. You have taken to sleeping on your face which scares me a little but you seem to like it so I usually flip you over a few times and then stop fighting you.

We love you little girl and you make all of our lives brighter!

Here are some of our "photoshoot" out takes...

In love with her pretty baby blues!!
We get this face all the time.



And here is a collage of months 1-6. You can click on it to enlarge.

**Griffin weighed 14.3 lbs at 6 months so Gracie girl def. has a few lbs. on him! I love it! :)**
