Six Months

Better get to this six month post since seven is at the end of this week! Our Carter-girl growing like a weed!! At her six month appt she weighed 16 lbs 13 oz and was 26 inches long. Both of these are in the 50th percentile.  As of now, she is showing to be a bit smaller than her sister. Blair was over 18 lbs at 6 months old. We have started food just a tad bit later with Carter than we did with Blair. She currently has had peas, carrots, sweet potatoes, and squash. Hopefully, we will get to the fruits next week. She is still a great sleeper; she goes to bed at 7 pm and sleeps until 7:30 am. She takes two naps a day; one at 9:30 and the 2nd at 1:30. She has oatmeal at 7:30 with an 8 oz bottle, and veggies at 11:30 with another 8 oz bottle. Then, she has oatmeal again at 3:30 with a full bottle, and then a bedtime bottle at 7pm. She drains every bottle like she is starving! She is sitting up pretty good and becoming more and more stable. I can tell that this little rug rat is going to be a mover. She barely wants to just sit. She constantly rolls onto her knees and rocks back and forth. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before she is all over the place! Lord, please give me some more time! This little baby is the sweetest thing. I love to hear her babbling all day (even though 90% of it sounds like da-da). She is just happy to be here, and we are so lucky to have her in our lives! Here is her 6 month old photo shoot in our backyard!
