6 month

I can't believe you are 6 months old already.
It seems like just yesterday we brought you home from the hospital.

I call you Sunshine and it suits you perfectly!
Your eyes twinkle with joy 99% of the time.

You are a very content, easy going baby.
It took you a little longer to make it through the night than the rest of your siblings, but 8 hours at 10 weeks is nothing to complain about.
You still sleep great.
You loved being wrapped up tight.
I lay you down awake and most times you fall asleep without making a peep.
You take 2 naps a day and sometimes a mini nap right before dinner.
You are still nursing. Hopefully we will make it to a year.
You started solids on Christmas Eve.
Avocado was your first food.
You've now expanded your menu to sweet potatoes, pears, peaches and bananas. However bananas tend to constipate you, so those are saved for special treats. Kind of like mom's ice cream, well not the constipate part, the treat part :)
Soon you will be starting on yogurt and whole grains.
You don't have any teeth yet, but you drool all the time.
You twist and roll around. You're not going anywhere fast, yet.
Last night you started to try work yourself up onto your knees, but you weren't quite strong enough yet.
You can sit by yourself but only for 10 seconds. Then something excites you and down you go.
You giggle at your siblings, smile at their presence and love to watch them.
You don't like your car seat for long periods of time. I normally put you in the Hot Sling when we go shopping.
You LOVE bath time. You kick with delight when we start the water.
You fall asleep easily for dad at church. You've got him wrapped around your finger.
We've voted you the biggest distraction during school that ever was.

You, my Sunshine, are a gift from God.
And I thank Him for giving me the privilege of being your mommy.
