6 Months!

Maggie is 6 months old today!


Here's what the little sweetie is up to:
-She is at the end of the 3-6 month sizes, we are transitioning to the 6-9 month sizes based on brand (the brands that run small will fit, while others just hang on her).
-We finally had to cut her toenails for the first time!
-She still doesn't like to be on her tummy, but will tolerate it for longer periods of time (5 minutes max).
-She can pivot around, but doesn't crawl...she'll have to be on her tummy more to figure that out.


-She is getting even better at sitting up, and doesn't like to lay down to play as much...she wants to sit up and play.
-She is strong enough to sit-up from laying down in her car seat (when unbuckled) or while sitting in her bouncer.
-She loves her soothie pacifier still and if she sees it among toys, it will be the first thing she goes after.
-If she's happy we will take it out of her mouth and luckily she doesn't get upset.
-She is working on growing some hair .
-She still takes a bottle/nurses at 7am, 11am, 3pm and 6pm.
-She has cereal/baby food at 11am and 6pm.
-She has tried avocado and carrots.
-She has little patience if you get off schedule when it comes to eating.
-The girls at daycare adore her!
-She is a great night sleeper as usual...going to bed for the night anywhere between 6:30 and 7:30 and sleeping until 6:45am when I wake her during the week, or 8am on weekends.
-She is so observant - she has been since birth actually.
-Judy, her daycare lady, just loves her and says she has been her easiest baby yet, as long as she's fed on time.
-She likes to "feed" herself (she'll hold the bottle on her own, but has yet to figure out that she needs to do to tip it back).


-She is a lady who lunches- I had the week off of work after Christmas and we went to lunch together almost everyday to meet someone.  She was so well behaved and loved sitting on my lap watching everything around her.
-She discovered how to make that "razz" sound with her spit on Christmas- I've been trying to capture it on camera to no avail.
-Still no sign of teeth (she has been a drooler since 3 months).


-She will have her 6 month check-up on Tuesday, January 17th.
