She's so smart....she's already skipping grades!

...Or, her momma's so behind, she accidentally skipped updating a month. Oops! "For sooth and for shame" as my High School AP Psychology teacher would say. (Still not 100% sure what that means?!) Anywho, here is the scoop for Sophia at 6 months old.

Wait! Did I just say SIX months?! How can my baby already be half a year old?! Wow...

Sophia you are:

*14 pounds and 27 inches...that would be 30th percentile for weight and 90th for height. You are long and lean!

*You are beginning to wear 6-9 month clothes for their length. 3-6 still fits, but you are too long, especially for the pants.

*You wear a size 2 diaper

*You are beginning to chew on your thumb...you don't really suck on it, but you love to chew on it.

*You now go to bed at 7:00, sleep through the night, "dreamfeed" at 5:30, then get up for the day at 7:00. Thank you SO MUCH for this!

*You had a week or so of waking up a couple of times during the night, but I thank teething and separation anxiety for that.

*I think you are going to begin cutting a tooth or two sooner rather than later.

*You began to sit up unassisted a week before Christmas and began full time sitting on Christmas Eve. You would now rather sit on the floor to play than lay down. A few (light) falls has taught to to lean over very slowly..smart girl!

*You are attached to mommy still. You like to play with daddy, but you'd prefer if mommy were in the room with you at all times.

*You had your first Christmas and you were the best.baby.ever. You did GREAT being around so many people, totally off your schedule, and with so much going on. You loved having so much attention and you thought tearing off paper and eating it was pretty cool. You got so many great presents...you are definitely LOVED.

*You are still the happiest baby I have ever met. You have the biggest, gummiest smile and it melts my heart.

*You have realized that you can get to where you want to go by rolling and wriggling around. You have managed to get on your knees a hand full of times. I think crawling is in your near future.

*Your hair has a mind of its own! I love the fact that you have hair, but it sure is wild!

*You prefer vegetables over fruit. I'm hoping this means you don't have your momma's sweet tooth. ; ) You really like green beans, peas, carrots, and sweet potatoes. You don't particularly care for peaches or apples.

*You are still nursing like a champ and prefer to hold your own bottle when getting one. Miss independent.

Half a year has already blown by and I can't wait to see what the other half has in store for us! You are such a blessing and a joy to us all. Love you, baby girl!
