Madeline Emma is 6 months old!


It's so hard to believe that our baby girl is already 6 months. She has brought so much joy to our lives in the last 6 months. She is very smiley and her laugh is just about the best sound I've ever heard. Connor is still the most talented in making her laugh and smile. We started introducing solids foods to her in the last couple weeks. She's not thrilled with rice cereal or oatmeal, but has been enjoying carrots, sweet potatoes and banana. She's sitting up independently and will sometimes play in a seated position for 20 minutes at a time. She enjoys pushing up on her feet and bouncing. She's able to roll back and forth and can travel pretty well by rolling. She's sleeping in her crib nightly now, usually from 7:30pm to 5:30am. Occasionally, she'll wake earlier throughout the night, but some nights she sleeps through. We had her well-baby check up today and she weighs 17 pounds, 3 ounces and is 25 inches long. She's beginning to outgrow some of her 3-6 months clothes, so we're getting down the 6-9 month wardrobe. Overall, Maddie is a very healthy, happy girl. She is the ultimate blessing!
