Caroline's 6 month birthday was July 12th. Seth was TDY to Dobbins AFB for 2 weeks, so I got to take her to another doctor's appointment alone(yay,not!). I, again, don't have her stats right in front of me, but it was something like 28" (97% for height) and 18 lbs (91%) for weight. She is a growing baby girl! The day of her appointment, her first official tooth popped through! She now has one bottom tooth that you can see and another right next to it that you can see, but not feel yet. She had a rough week when it was coming through and would wake up between 4:30 and 5:30a.m. every day...while Seth was gone...and I was playing single mom. It was tough, but we made it through! We spent a lot of mornings like the one above, laying in bed watching the news. And some mornings I strapped her in the jogging stroller for a morning run for me. So, it worked out in the end. Some new developments for this 6 month beauty are:
-She rolls back and forth and now uses that as a means to get to things she wants.
-She can sit up unassisted for a good bit of time, but is so interested in checking everything out that she eventually rolls to her side to inspect something of interest.
-She's down to 4 bottles a day and has started using a sippy cup.
-She wears 9 month and even 12 month clothes because she's just so darn long that anything smaller than that just won't button!
That's all I can think of at the moment. She really is such a joy to have and I just love her little personality. Her smile lights up the entire room and that precious giggle of hers melts my heart. Here's to the next 6 months going by MUCH more slowly!
