Happy 6 months!

It's officially been a half year since Collins came into the world! In some ways it seems like a life time ago, but mostly time is flying by too quickly.



Stats:
Weight: 13lbs 15oz (13th percentile)
Height: 25.25 inches (32nd percentile)

We are finally wearing size 2 diapers and moved fully into 3-6 month clothing. 



Collins' little personality is beginning to come out. It is so fun to watch! She loves to participate in "conversation" and mostly sounds like a baby bird or a flock of baby birds 😉. One of my favorite moments this month was at H's preschool. I took her in to pay tuition and the ladies were commenting on her cute little ruffle bum. They were all doting on her and she would laugh and then bury her head into me and then babble and bury her head into me. It was seriously the cutest thing! Another favorite development this month: when I pick C up from her crib, she buries her head into my shoulder and snuggles into me. I love it! She is very into faces this month and loves to grab, clasp, pat, and pull at anything on your face. 



This month has brought some fun milestones:

 We have an official sitter! The month started off shaky, but daily practice finally turned into a new milestone. Collins is loving the new view! She still topples if she stops paying attention or gets tired. We  put a triangle of pillows or soft blankets behind her, just in case. 




She can pass objects back and forth between hands and definitely searches for dropped objects.

I can't remember if I've recorded these, but she's definitely doing the following:
*Making razzing noises
*stringing sounds together e.g. "ah goo"
*turns head in the direction of a noise sounded
*notices even small objects

Collins loves:
*Hannah
*Daisy
*Bath time
*Putting her hands behind her head to signify she's sleepy.
*Paci
*Pulling her lovey to her face
*exersaucer/jumparoo 
*putting everything into her mouth!






We did have a few firsts this month including a trip to the beach and to meet great, great Aunt Vivian (94)



Stay tuned... We will be starting solids this month. So fun!
