6 month wellness check

I am way behind on blogging. I don't have a computer at home right now so all my post have to be done from my phone and it really sucks because I can't organize my thoughts in a better way due to how the app on my phone works. I am going to try to make it to the library at least once a week to write a post and I really want this blog to be more than what it is so I'm also going to be working on making it more personable and most important Updated!
 
With that fine introduction I give you my sweet darling girl at 6 months old.
 
 
 
AGE: 6 months
WEIGHT: 20 pounds
HEIGHT: 28 inches long
 
This little wild thing is craaaaazy! She is ahead of the curve on all her mobile skills-says her doctor. ;) She is sitting up, grabbing at things and teething. She will gnaw on anything she can get her hands on. Still no sign of teeth just yet. Poor girl is miserable.
 
She is quickly outgrowing all her clothes. We have already entered into 9 month and 12 month bins.
 
Her favorite things are chewing, playing with her feet, climbing up me or Casey trying to get to things, baths, eating, story time and going on walks.
 
We have dipped our hands in the baby food a little bit. I am stuck between giving her cereal and purees or going the baby led weaning route. If I am honest we are doing a bit of both and just winging it. I give her oatmeal and a fruit puree for breakfast and then she will just nurse the rest of the day. Sometimes I will give her a taste of what we are eating but not very often. Feeding has definitely been the biggest challenge thus far. She has only nursed her whole life so I know that will sustain her and keep her healthy. Switching up her food intake is terrifying. Of course I know she can live on people food because everyone does, but taking that leap is still scary.
 
I am pretty sure she says "Hi" and sometimes we think we hear "mama" and "dada", but that could just be our imaginations.
 
That's all for now. I will be  back soon with a few more posts. When I write, I write a lot.
