Six Months Old!!

Dear Sweet Maddie,
Six months?!?! I can't believe a half of a year has already gone by! You have brought SO much excitment into our lives we can't even keep track of time! This month your personality has really started shining through. Everyone constantly says how happy you are and with big smiles like this, how could anyone doubt that?

You are officially sitting up completely on your own without being propped up. Every now and then you get a little too wobbly and fall over. Don't worry, soon enough you'll be able to get yourself back up! Until then it's mommy to the rescue!

Like I said before, you are such a happy baby. You smile all.the.time! Taking pictures is a breeze with you because it is so easy to get you going for the camera. As you can see from your last two pictures, you have been into the big open mouthed smile lately. It's the cutest little toothless grin we've ever seen!!

You are growing so well, too! At your 6 month appointment, you checked in at 15 pounds and 25 1/2 inches! That means you've grown half a foot since birth! Go, Maddie, Go!

You have started eating a jar of baby food at every meal now, and you haven't met a food you don't like...that's my girl! You even impress me with how clean you are when you eat. Most of the time the mess on your bib isn't even from you, it's from me spilling food on it! :)

Here's a little of your personality coming out to play! Haha...actually you are very good about keeping your headband on. You must know how obsessed I am cute you look in them! Grandpa Kurt thought it would be funny take it off and let you play with it...you thought it was some mighty good fun! ;)

We love you so much baby girl! JOY doesn't even begin to cover how we feel about our little family of three.

XOXO
Mommy
