Happy 1/2 year Birthday Reese!









It's so hard to believe Reese is already 1/2 year old! Where does the time go? It seems like we were just taking our little beaner home from the hospital, and now she's already 6 months old. She is most definitely not that helpless little baby anymore. She sits up without our help and if she topples over she can get herself back to sitting with little or no help from us. She hasn't started any real form of crawling at this point but rather flops like a fish or rolls and rolls and rolls to get where she wants. She still loves to stand on her feet and always flashes her great big smile (now mostly with tongue hanging out) anytime you pull her up. Diaper changes are becoming a real challenge and a lengthy one at that, flipping over every chance she gets. She still LOVES to eat anything within her grasp- books, toys, clothes, blankets, shoes, socks, you name it!

To celebrate her 6 month birthday we started giving her a little rice cereal and she did okay with the new form of food. She mostly just wanted to 'eat' the spoon and didn't care much about what was on it. We will start trying fruits and veggies once we're stateside again!

Sleeping issues are a thing of the past (yay!) as she has been sleeping like a real champion these days. Going down great for naps and sleeping through the night without even a peep for the last couple weeks straight. We really need to celebrate this now since sleepless nights are probably in our near future with the big move home.

Here are a few pics from the last month or so.
