6 months

Could you be any happier? Seriously! The happiest smiliest baby in the world. Could it be because you weigh 19.7 lbs and are the 97th percentile for weight and 60th for height! Could it be because you are loved so very much and you have the greatest big sister in Charli. It could be so many things but you are just perfect. You have the ability to light up every room you enter. Your blue eyes are so big and your face is so round, the light brown hair you have and the huge thighs- you are just the cutest. Oh and those buns and boobies you are jsut a chubbawubba and it is amazing.You don't even have a cry, Grandma says is it the most feminine whimper to get attention and then you just start to laugh again. What is so funny to me is that you have been jumping in the jump jump since 4 months old and you and Charli jump together. She runs around the table and you both think you are chasing each other while you are jumping in the jump jump. Then you both just giggle and laugh-it is contagious. You just love to giggle and it is so easy for you to smile and to make us smile. Your laugh is so cute I can't stand it!!! Charli loves to say your name over and over and you just laugh and laugh. She can't give you enough hugs and she wants to hold you but your weight difference is only 10 lbs so that is so funny to watch. Oh and you are a grabber, a grabber to everything. You grabbed my hot soup on Charli's birthday my heart sunk but you are tenacious and bounced right back. You grab hair, fish hook faces, throw cameras. You are so strong and interested in grabbing anything in your way. The hanging toys on you car seat you mastered within days. Pulling them and hitting the soccer ball back and forth they didn't stand a chance with you. Oh and your wubbanubs we can't go anywhere without those, they are your security blanket. At 6 months old you are able to sit up on your own roll over in both directions front to back and back to front. You have said both maaaa and dada and differentiated who you wanted and you are in love with Charli and the feeling is mutual. You have tried carrots and peas and bananas and cereal. You have managed to spit them all out and lock your lips but each day you take a little more in. Carrots were the first food you actually like along with the bananas in the cereal. Miss Kathy takes great care of you each day, you are still referred to as Porkchop with your little Porkchop blanket and you have stolen everyone's hearts. You still wake up in the night to eat so there hasn't been a full night where you have slept through but that's okay I know Daddy loves to hold you and feed you. You have managed to continue to fight off illness and this nagging cough and even in sickness have been a pleasure. We have introduced Enfamil Gentleease with breast milk as my body has started to deplete in milk capacity. I have put you in the crib twice to nap and I will do my best to continue so you can stretch out and sleep on your tummy. Oh Danica you are truly beautiful and so happy. You just sit in your little seats and laugh at everyone and manipulate your toys and throw them around. You love to talk and giggle and you have made this family even more blessed. The funny thing is you are still a little unsure about Uncle Eric funny how Uncle Eric and babies can make one another so nervous, but that is what silly Uncles are for and soon you and Charli will be parading gall over town with Uncle Eric.  ABth time is still your favorite part of the day and you are now in a bath seat. You had your first swim lesson at 6 months and you loved every moment of it. Life is good, it really is and you keep making it better. I look forward to each new day and the amazing dynamic you bring to it. You are a life changer, a one in a billion, an everything you could want and more little girl, and you are all mine' ours. We love you.
