A half year of Gracie!

That's right folks, we have had our little one for 6 whole months! Crazy to believe. I cannot imagine my life without her. The way she laughs at you when you blow her neck, or has a huge smile on her face when you get her out of bed, the way that her arms and legs flap and she squeals when you walk into the room. She is so interested in new things, loves being outside, and just this intense look on her face when she sees something that she hasn't seen before, she will grab it, look at it, then inevitably will try to eat anything and everything.

Developments:

• She is now eating solid foods ( a little, more to that soon)!
• She can sit up and hold her self up for a long time now
• She loves being on her tummy, and is now scooting and twisting everywhere, she can move almost across the whole living room!(though it might take a while)
• She is talking more and more, and loves to squeal, especially in church, though we call it making a "joyful noise"
• She loves toys, and will scream when you take it away, or more commonly when she drops it.
• Her favorite toys as of now is an elephant her aunt Chrissy got her and the remote control!
• She loves to jump in her Jumperoo or her Johnny Jump up and can stay in there for like 30 minutes and can give mama a break.
• She loves people! We have tried really hard to pass her off, and get her used to being held by other people because usually it is just her and myself during the day, and it has been a success. She loves being the center of attention, and will brighten up whenever anyone talks to her and plays with her (am I really that boring?)
• As much as she loves people, she also knows that her mama brings her food and comfort and will be fine until she sees me, then starts to cry and (kinda) hold her arms out for me (maybe)

I am sure there is more, but I just can't remember everything!

Normally she'll go to bed around 8, sleep till 430-5 then after eating will sleep until 730. Very doable. Though sometimes she can be up for two hours at night!

Pictures to come soon! Promise, Christmas ones as well!
