Six Months

Lucy at six months is, you guessed it, a very happy and easygoing baby. She enjoys people, still not showing any stranger anxiety. She loves to babble and loves to do it loudly! Her most recent babblings have been the "D" sound and Evan keeps trying to claim that she is saying her first word. 

Lucy's weight: 13 lb 12 oz (10%)
Lucy's height: 26.5 inches (75%)

Lucy is in her six month clothes mainly due to her long legs and arms. She still nurses every 3 hours during the day and wakes up at night usually only once, sometimes twice. 

She has moved from sweet potatoes to squash; bananas to pears and they have all been greeted with the same reaction. Immediately sticking her tongue out and pushing the food out of her mouth. She does not open her mouth when the spoon comes near, in fact she clamps her lips shut and moves her head away which clearly means she is NOT interested. However, we keep trying and tonight when she had pears for the first time there was less sticking out of her tongue and less spitting out of her food so we may be getting somewhere. Hopefully. 

Lucy is a very active baby. She is constantly on the move whether that is rolling around, pushing up into crawl mode or even into downward facing dog. We are working with her to sit up although she usually just falls right over. She loves to munch on her toes and hands. She has two lower teeth and seems to be working on cutting her upper incisors next. 

Liam and Caroline still love talking, reading and playing with Lucy. She still adores them and gets very excited when they take the time to be silly for her.

It's really hard to believe how quickly these last six months have gone. She has changed so much in such a short amount of time. Slow down Lucy!
