Half Way to First Birthday

Happy half birthday MG!  Yesterday MG made 6 months old!! We cannot believe time has flown so fast!  Just yesterday it seems like we brought the little munchkin home!  Today we went to see our new pediatrician , Dr. Weed, for MG's 6 month shots :(!  She did great and we are happy to report she is 17 pounds 5.5 ounces (77%) and 25 inches long (24%).  We've got a little shorty on our hands!  We started a tradition of making a mark on our pantry door frame so one day MG can see just how much she has grown!(6 inches in 6 months so far!)

We have enough hair for a little ponytail now!

And everything goes in my mouth!

Little smile!

We took away the sign for a better chance at a good pic!

After 6 months MG has...
#1 Found her voice!!! She literally yells when she's happy, sad or just to hear herself scream!  It's sort of become a trade mark and 90% of the time it makes Marvin and I laugh.
#2 Mastered the art of sitting up!  Yep...she's a sitter and she is on the verge of just getting up a running!  She seems to be pretty bored with sitting and usually ends up on her tummy frustrated because she can't get to where she wants to go without one of us picking her up!
#3 Been on another plane ride!  She did great flying with me to New Orleans for Caroline's graduation.
#4 Fallen in love with banana pudding!!! Yes...she loved it!  I can't blame her.  Her Mommy and Daddy have a weakness for it too!
#5 Tried all sorts of baby food! And she hasn't seemed to dislike any of it! Bananas are her favorite! Daddy cringes when he feeds her the green veggies.
#6 Been teething FOREVER!!!! She is constantly wearing a bib because the slobber is just OUT OF CONTROL! Everything goes in her mouth first (toys, hands, Mommy's hair, etc..)  Hopefully, we will have 1 or 2 teeth to report with next months highlights.

In honor of MG's six month birthday we let her stay in her cupcake pj's all day and went on a long walk to the park with Sarge!  It was a great day!  

We can't wait to see what this month brings! Month 7 here we come!!!
