Happy 6 Months, Evelyn!

I can't believe that our Tiny Dancer is 6 months old today! We went to the pediatrician for her 6-month well-baby visit on Friday, and here are her stats:

Weight: 14lbs, 8 oz

Height: 26 inches (she grew an 1 & 1/4 inches last month!)

Head circumference: 16 inches

She is a very healthy little girl and even got her shot without blinking an eye! She has been exclusively breastfed up until today, when she had her first food (I will post another entry on that topic).

taking a break while nursing - see all the milk dripping from my chin?

I was distracted by the camera!

Evelyn rolls from front to back and back to front, can tripod sit for a few seconds at a time, and has all sorts of sounds that she makes. She finally started taking a bottle and enjoys playing with her sippy cup. At times she pushes herself up on her hands an knees, and she can scoot herself around to get to a toy that she wants to play with. I often find her bodysurfing on the wood floor because she has wiggled herself off her play mat. Her personality is exploding more and more every day, with giggles and squeals echoing throughout our house.

Here are a few photos from yesterday and today:

I am 6 months old today!

(we moved her to her crib two nights ago,

and last night she slept for almost 10 hours before waking to be fed!)

Is there a baby hiding under all those blankets?
