0.5

How has a half of a YEAR already flown by?!?!?! I just can't believe it. This age is sooooo much fun. You are changing so fast and it seems like you learn something new every day. I never thought you could get any cuter but sure enough... you did! We have had lots of time together in the last few weeks and I have loved every minute. You are the sweetest little buddy to hang out with! At 6 months: You LOVE your mama and dada and get SO excited when one of us comes home! Here you are playing with dad when he got home from football.
You are getting your 2 bottom teeth. You sleep from 7-8 every night to 7 in the morning. You love your bed, your lovie and your noise maker. I love watching you put yourself to sleep, it is so sweet. You snuggle up against your bumper and suck on your little lovie and purr a little bit until you fall asleep! We put the little animals that Karsen gave you in your bed and you wake up and play with them just like she did! I usually let you play a little while after you wake up and when I go upstairs the animals are all over your crib and you are talking to them! You drink well from a sippy cup. You love to play with your toys (thank you Owen for letting us borrow all of them!) You are sitting up all by yourself You like to shop. You still don't like your stroller after about 20 minutes (we are still working on this because I LOVE to walk with you!). Regarding shopping, you like it because I carry you the whole time. Yes, I know you are spoiled and no I don't really care. You love to swim. You love your Aristocat from Pops and play with her while Mama cleans your room You talk to (yell at) and laugh at Macy all day long You love your food! Your current diet includes bananas, cereal, peaches, strawberries, blueberries, cantaloupe, watermelon, applesauce, prunes, zucchini, squash, green beans and peas. You are not picky and even love your veggies! But your very favorite is still your mama's milk :) You love to swing and usually fall asleep in it You are growing the cutest blond peach fuzz I have ever seen. You talk and talk and talk all.day.long. You can still throw a BIG fit when things don't go your way but they are becoming less and less frequent and you are starting to understand "no". You like to read your books. You think Karsen is so funny. You are the sweetest little angel in the whole wide world and an absolute joy to be with. I love you to pieces, Mama
