6 Months

I'm typing this from work, so I don't have any pictures to post...I will SOON! My Silly Lily, my sweet baby girl, turned 6 months old on Thursday. It seems like just yesterday that Jason and I brought her home from the hospital. I remember being a little scared and unsure of myself on that day, but I can honestly say that being a mommy is the absolute BEST thing in this world! She is my love and my life and each day only gets better and better. She is kind of funny lately and actually kind of ornery...I'd say a little like her mommy! Her little personality is really shining through. Lily got a birthday present from her daddy...can you guess what that may have been??? If you know my husband he is quite TALL and a rather good basketball player, so Lily got a mini basketball hoop from him. Very cute! He had it all wrapped for her in Happy Birthday paper...I was holding her in my arms as she unwrapped it and the tears were flowing down my face. I can't put into words how much I love this little person! We go to the Dr. this Thursday for her 6 month well baby check and shots. I'll post again with her length and weight, etc. Lily is doing well with her foods. She likes most everything EXCEPT for peas. She gags and spits and just doesn't care for them...I never did either. I feed her solids twice a day. I usually mix a fruit with rice cereal for her in the morning and then we give her a vegetable at night. She still takes the same amount of formula throughout the day as well. She can sit up on her own for a little bit longer everyday before she topples over. She continues to constantly roll over from side to side and she is still scooting around like crazy on her back. She is even starting to pull her legs up under her while on her tummy as if she is thinking about wanting to crawl...we'll see! Still no teeth, but everything goes into her mouth! She will start "Shrimp" swimming lessons next month at the YMCA...and I think that is all I have for now! Thanks for checking in!
