She's a Petite Little Thing

Sophia had her 6 month well visit yesterday. She is 14lbs 13oz, 24.5in tall and her head is 16.5in....all to say she is a short and trim little girl with a slightly big noggin :)

They had us fill out a development questionairre thing...and she is developing at an 8 month old rate! We knew she was super baby...but now we have proof haha.

The doctor said, I would go ahead and start baby proofing soon. We agreed. We have a WILD child on our hands. She is so curious about everything, and cannot sit still. The only time she snuggles anymore is when she is asleep...even her nursing time has become a party for her.

We are going to have our hands full, even if she is just a tiny thing! She had a cold last week, but with breastfeeding we knocked it out with no lasting evidence. HOORAY for boobie juice! All in All our girl is strong and healthy and perfect...and CUTE.

So onto the part you've all been waiting for....go VOTE!! She moved up 45 spots yesterday, let's keep it up and get her into the top 30 tomorrow!! Please SHARE it with your friends! Thank you, thank you for voting yesterday...voting continues EVERY SINGLE DAY until Sunday, May 11th (Mother's Day)

No Way You Are 6 Months Old

I just cannot believe Sophia is actually two days aways from being a half year old. 6 months. No Way! She continues to amaze us with how incredibly smart she is. Sitting like a pro, rolling all over the place, talking ALL the time now :), she can pull herself up (AHH!!), she can scoot around...crawling is near...that is if she doesn't skip crawling and go straight to running.

She is the joy of our lives. She has the best personality ever. When we are feeling down, that smile brings us right back up. I love seeing this brand new world with her. Every single day is something amazing.

Breastfeeding is still wonderful. We are going to start some purees soonish, and maybe start giving her some finger foods to play with. We may even try to start training her on a sippy cup.

She has her 6 month well visit on Wednesday, I say she will weigh about 14 lbs and she will be about 24 in.

We will be getting some photos taken from our wonderful pal Alex soon. That is our Mother's Day gift to one another :) I love how Alex can capture our personalities so well...and adding Sophia to the mix is going to be so so fun.

While I'm gushing about our girl...let me go ahead and plea for your vote! She is entered in the Parents Magazine 2014 Cover Contest!! Go HERE to vote for her picture...if you feel so inclined, you can share the link too :) She will be so glad you did! You can vote EVERY day this week.

Until next time (which will probably be tomorrow, when I plea for votes again)!
