6 Months!

Once again I am a few days behind making Arden's 6-month pose.  That's OK though.  I am still feeling a bit overwhelmed having two children and returning to work.  I miss my babies while I am gone!

Here is what Arden is up to these days:
  • Rolling over from her back to her tummy frequently and quickly.  She is now able to return to her back most of the time by herself.
  • Sitting independently (for the most part).  Arden can sit without support on the ground pretty well now.  She still looses her balance occasionally if she reaches for a toy or something.
  • Actually starting to play with toys.  You love the exersaucer more than being held sometimes.  You also love anything that makes music.
  • Arden, your favorite people are still Mommy and Loren.  Daddy is also a favorite of yours.  You have taken well to Mrs. Cheryl too.
  • Arden is still eating about 5 ounces at each bottle feeding and two servings of solids a day.  
  • She is wearing size 3 diapers.  We got you some of the Huggies jean ones and you look super cute with one and a white t-shirt.
  • Arden's clothes sizes are 6-9 months and even a few 12 month things
  • Still lots of drooling but no teeth.
  • Your six month check up is scheduled for 9/19 (soonest they had?!) but I took you in to the doctor on 8/25 for a little rash and you weighed 19.5  pounds
  • Arden is doing so well at Mrs. Cheryl's!  She seems to enjoy being there and even naps for Cheryl!
  • You love to tap your little arm and hand against things repeatedly and grasp hold of anything you can get your hand on - including hair.  Ouch!

6 month old Seminole!!

Arden, we love you sooo much and I can't believe my little baby is a half a year old already!

**UPDATE** -  We were not able to get in to the pediatrician for Arden's 6-month check up until 9/19 which would actually make these her stats for 6 and 1/2 months.  Arden weighed 20 pounds and 7 ounces and was 28 1/2 inches tall!  She was off the charts for both weight and height.  In case any one was wondering, the doctor says she is proportionate and NOT too chubby. :)
