6 Month Stats

I have a special six month post I STILL haven't got around to posting for our sweet Sophie! But here's the one with her stats. We got back in town last Wednesday and she had her 6 month check up the following morning. She turned 6 months on June 9th so June 21 was pushing it! Anyway, here are some stats on our girlie:

Weight: 11 lbs 15 oz (she is going upwards on her own little growth curve so the doc is happy with her, but seriously, not even 12 lbs yet?!!! She is a little midget!)

Height: 26 and 1/4 inches (so that's where all her food is going!)

Doings: she can roll over both ways, change toys from one hand to the other, loves to put weight on her legs by "standing" if we hold her hands, and is scooting a bit to reach toys

Sayings: she blows bubbles, and makes several sounds "gee" and "da" (I'm working with her on "Mama"!!), as well as babbling a lot

Eating: we still have to work really hard on increasing her formula intake but she actually took a 5 oz bottle last night. Andre and I were shocked! Woohoo! Anyway, she has taken to solids really well and opens her mouth and gets excited when she sees the spoon. She has really enjoyed rice cereal which we do in the morning, and just tonight I gave her sweet potatoes which she loved. Good stuff!

Looking: she is still pretty bald, but is getting quite a bit of very light, almost blonde hair the past few weeks. She is very long, just like her brother but with nice chunky little legs! She is gearing up for her first tooth I think, so lots of drool happening over here. 

Otherwise, she is a healthy and very happy little girl, for which we are truly thankful!
