My baby girl is growing up and I can't believe how quickly the past 6 months have flown by! Here are her 6 month stats:
Weight: 15.3 pounds 31st percentile (up from the 11th percentile at 5 months--she's chunking up!)
Length: 25.62 inches 33rd percentile (up from the 23rd percentile at 4 months)
Head Circumference: 16.75 inches 56th percentile (up from the 54th percentile at 4 months)
Basically her head is average sized but it is certainly still the biggest part of her. The rest of her is catching up fast though! Her hair is finally starting to fill in and her eyes are getting darker. Other highlights:
She now rolls over both from stomach to back and back to stomach. She is almost always kicking her feet, especially when she is on her stomach. She also sits up really well by herself as long as I balance her pretty well to start with.
She isn't as content to just sit and snuggle and constantly wants to go, go, go. She is very observant of everything around her and loves watching people. She's got her hands figured out and will reach for and grab anything and everything (especially Auntie Annie's hair). She has also discovered her toes and loves to suck on them whenever she gets the chance. She also pulls her socks off on a regular basis.
She is becoming more vocal and makes some funny noises, especially when she gets excited. She LOVES watching Elmo and it surprises me how much it holds her attention. She enjoys being outside and likes going for walks now that the weather is starting to warm up. She has been eating rice cereal for about a month and will be starting other baby foods soon.
