Six Months

Weight: Around 14 pounds (we go in about 2 weeks for our 6 month check-up) 

Height: Around 25 inches

Clothing: Pretty much 6 month stuff, a few 6-9/9 month things

Diapers: Size 2 (in Pampers and Luvs); we've moved to size 3 at night

Feeding: Still eating 5 times a day now. We nurse for 3 of those and have pumped milk out of a bottle for the other two (typically at BB's). Sidney typically takes about 8 oz from the bottle. We eat about 2 tablespoons of cereal/oatmeal and a couple of tablespoons of fruits or veggies twice a day. So far she's had: carrots, pears, squash, peaches, peas, sweet potatoes, bananas, apples, avocado. The only thing she hasn't liked was avocado and she pretty much refused it after a bite or two.

Hair/Eyes: Hair and eyes are pretty much the same. Her hair is brown, getting lighter and I think it's getting fuzzier. Her eyes are still dark brownish/grey.

Sleep: Sidney is a great sleeper. Her last feeding is around 7:15/7:30 and she sleeps until 6 during the week. I try to let her sleep a little later on Saturdays. She'll typically sleep until 7 or 7:30 on those mornings. She doesn't always love to nap on the weekends because she would rather be social and hangout with Mom, Dad, and whoever else is around.

Fun Stuff:

-Sidney still loves bathtime. She can be fussy, then she gets in the bathtub and she's perfectly content.

-She is sitting up!

-She is such a happy baby. She has just started making this high-pitched squeal that makes me laugh nearly every time I hear it.

-Sidney continues to enjoy talking

-She's watching Lula more and more

-She loves to eat! Sometimes if I don't give her another bite fast enough, she gets a little huffy.

-Sidney still likes to play with her feet and occasionally they make it to her mouth

-She still absolutely loves to bounce in the Johnny Jumper seat and she also loves to play in her exersaucer

-On the 21st we had baby dedication (post to follow soon, I hope).

-Sidney and I survived a week with Bailey out of town. This was our second week of flying solo but the first time to do it while I was working. We successfully made it to BB's each morning and I made it to work a little earlier than normal each day.

-She is such a HAM! She LOVES to be the center of attention. I went to pick her up from BB's one day and BB told me that she had Sidney in the kitchen, in her carseat, waiting for me to get there. SK started fussing so BB brought her in the living room with the other kids and that was all she needed, to be little Miss Social.

 

Once again, I did the monthly photo session by myself. And, once again, SK was not interested in me or the camera at all. She was WAY much more interested in her sock monkey....
