Abby is six months old today. I can't believe it has been six months already. She has grown so fast. We went to see Dr. Cramer today for her Six month check-up and she now weighs 18.05 lbs (90th percentile) and is 27.5 inches tall (over 100th percentile). Dr. Cramer says her height is off the charts and that she is about as tall as a 10 month old. We are not quite sure where she got her height from.
Abby is a little sweetheart. She is always smiling, talking, screaming and now squealing! She is getting to be a big girl. These are some of the things she loves at six months... She loves to sit, I don't know if she will ever roll because, why should she lay down when she can sit. When she is laying down she loves to kick. It is the funniest thing. We had to video it the other day because she was just going to town. She loves to play in her exersaucer, in her high chair, jumparoo and in her swing. Recently she has picked up shaking her head no. She probably does not understand what she is doing but we are in trouble nevertheless. Everything she plays with goes straight into her mouth. You never know if it might taste good. She is also teething so she likes to bite things too. She often does a great impression of a carp, we don't know why, but it is pretty funny. She LOVES to eat. Her favorite is Green Beans, but she also likes: Sweet Potatoes, Rice cereal, Pears and Pineapple, Squash, Pears, Mashed potatoes, Refried Beans at El Farol and anything else we decide to give her. Another thing she loves is when she is sitting in her high chair and we dump a bunch of Gerber Puffs on the tray and she picks them up and eats them. Sometimes one by one, others times in hand fulls and she lets us know when she is finished and wants more. Those Puffs are yummy. We take them every where we go. She still loves bath time, except for when she has to get dressed afterwords. I think she would be perfectly happy if she could be naked all the time. Getting dressed anytime during the day is always a traumatic experience. She loves her toes. She likes to reach for them and eat them when she finally gets a hold of them. Even when she is in her swing she reaches over the little tray and tries to grab her feet. We can't keep shoes and socks on her because is is always pulling, or kicking them off whenever she can. She also loves to watch other kids. Anytime she is around any of her nieces or nephews she loves to just sit and watch them. She thinks she is one of them, reaching for them, grabbing them and talking to them. Last she loves to snuggle and sleep in her purple butterfly blanket. We are still working on her sleeping through the night. Most of the time lately she has, but you never know what the night will bring. Abby is such a joy in our lives. We love watching her grow and learn new things. We are excited for the next stages to come.

One of the owies from the shots she got at the doctor today.
Playing in her high chair. She loves to pick up the toys then drop them off the side. So we come over and pick them up!
Kickin' those legs!
Playing in her exersaucer. Notice one sock on, one sock off. That is how it is most of the time.
Sitting and playing with all her toys. As usual it is going straight to the mouth.
