Eliza.... 6 months on the 6th


Eliza turned 6 months on the 6th. It is hard to believe. While this will probably be boring to most of you, I want to remember what is going on with Eliza at this age so here it goes.
At 6 months she:
- squeals a lot.
- makes a fake coughing noise... sounds like an evil laugh.
- loves to touch faces, pull hair, and give mommy kisses.
- has her 2 bottom front teeth.
- can sit up by herself for a little while before falling over.
- has become attached to us and afraid of strangers.
- still loves the dog
- loves to take her medicine and vitamins.
- smiles a lot.
- still hates rolling over.
- is getting better about tummy time if you bribe her with your cellphone or tv control.
- still does her weird 'pose' thing. In fact, I think she does it even more often. :(
- loves to eat oatmeal cereal.
- does not like green beans.
-loves taking baths.
- reaches for one toy over another instead of just grabing whatever.
- goes by Eliza, Ellie, Junebug, bug, booger, Ellie bear.
- loves to sleep with us.
- likes when we sing to her.
- makes us laugh everyday.
Our weekday schedule goes something like this:

If she wakes up before 6 and doesn't go back to sleep, she gets to sleep with us. Which sometimes means Kase has to go sleep elsewhere because she takes up a lot of room.

6:30-7 nursing time.

7:30 (should be but I am late sometimes) drop her off at daycare where she plays, eats, naps all day. I head to work where I miss her all day.

5 pick her up. She is tired and happy to see me.

5:30 nurse, eat some cereal and nap.

Randomly: playtime, bathtime, storytime.
8:00 diaper change, lotion, medicine, vitamins, p.j.s, nurse for bedtime.


9:00 in bed hopefully.


Weekends we sleep in. We play, nap, shop, play, eat, nap, whatever really. I try to nurse and not use bottles to keep up supply. So far so good. We just started baby food yesterday. A post to come on that soon.
It is getting hard to get a good picture her. In these first photos she has hat hair and her lounging clothes because she hates to change clothes.
These next photos she has green beans on her face. oops.


It is so fun to begin to see her personality emerge. We love her so much. She goes to the doctor on Friday so we'll see what her stats are and find out about her crazy posing. Funny girl.
Stats:
15 lbs 9.5 oz
26.5 inches long
Noggin' size: 16.6"
