Our sweet Caitlin bug turned 6 months old this weekend. We can't believe how fast the first 6 months went...and that we are half way to celebrating her 1st birthday! My baby really is growing up fast!!!!
Caitlin Elizabeth at 6 Months:
*Almost 14 lbs (exact stats next week)
*Drinking about 30 oz of Nutramigen Formula daily
*Doing rice cereal once a day, but very thinned
*Rolling over both ways...and all over the place
*Has begun rolling onto belly to sleep
*Is beginning to "scoot" and trying to get her legs into a crawling position
*Beginning to sit on own, can balance for 10-20 seconds before falling backwards
*LOVES to stand in her exersaucer or jumpy toy
*LOVES to be with other babies, especially at Ms Kelly's house
*Napping 3 times a day (8:00 am, 1:00pm, 4:00pm) for about an hour each
*Wearing 3-6 months clothes and size 2 diapers
*Has the SWEETEST demeanor...just a go-with-the-flow baby with a smile that lights up the room!
6???? Nice try at creative photography, Mom!
For Caitlin's 6 month birthday, she got a new mirror for her crib! She loves mirrors!
Watching the 2 girls together is so wonderful. Abigail is very gentle and kind with Caitlin...and always wants to help with her. She brings her toys, reads her books, and is constantly concerned if Caitlin is fussing, crying, or needs to be "rolled over". No matter what Caitlin is doing, when Abigail is near her, all eyes are on Abigail. Abigail can make her smile and laugh like no one else can. We can't wait to watch them grow up together!
I mean....come on....HILARIOUS! Abigail is so proud, and Caitlin is like "Uh mom...get her off of me!"
