6 Months Old!

Friday the 13th, Adelaide turned 6 months old. I cannot believe I've been a mommy for 6 months already. It's been such a wonderful, hard, uplifting, and fun experience! Addy has many new tricks this month. She is getting to be so big and independent. She has an opinion about EVERYTHING! She's been pretty sick (constant diarrhea for 2 weeks and labs are in at the hospital, we're waiting to hear) for about four weeks now, but she still manages to put an encouraging smile and giggle in there for mommy. Mornings and whenever Daddy is home are her favorite times. Here she is smiling for daddy before trying peas for the first time.

Addy does all kinds of acrobatics in her Bumbo. She can just about get out. She arches her back and leans to the side, the back, and the front. She's about out of it! Her new thing is feet. She loves hers :)
Now as you watch this, make sure and remember that she LOVES peaches, pears, sweet potatoes, yogurt, mashed potatoes, jello, root beer...basically every food we've ever given her...


This morning Addy was being especially happy so I took that opportunity to get some of her tricks on camera. Here is her new face...sometimes it looks more like a grimace, but this is kind of it. I'm not sure why she does it (she uses to show multiple emotions). But I love it!
SO happy in the morning! You can see the spit on her face...that's not from drooling. It's from spitting. That's right. She sticks her tongue out and spits right at me!
She is going to be crawling any day! Here she is rocking back and forth on hands and knees.
Using her leg to scooch her. She gets pretty much wherever she wants to go!

Almost crawling again!




Today she discovered her humidifier. She wasn't a fan...the air blowing in her face combined with laying on the cookie sheet weren't her favorite. This is her pushing away from it. She got out of there fast!
Holding her own bottle. She now pushes our hands away. Her favorite thing is to suck for a second of two and then take it out and wave it around before squirting herself in the eye on the way back to her mouth.
There's our beautiful 6 month old! Shane, we love you and miss you! Work hard, pray harder!
