Six Months

Hadley,

Six Months sounds like a long time, but the time has come and gone in the blink of an eye. I cannot believe that you are six months old! Everyday I look at you and feel so blessed. You have given me a joy that I had never experienced before. You've also shown me how to love in a way that I've never done before. I am constantly in awe of you and how much you've grown and learned over the past six months. 

Last month you began rolling from your back to your stomach and this month you began rolling from your stomach to your back. This has really helped you sleep better since you used to wake up crying because you couldn't turn over. Now, you can turn over in your sleep! You are still waking up at least twice a night, which makes for a sleepy mommy, but I know that growing girls need to eat... even at 4 in the morning!

At the end of this month you got sick for the first time. You had a fever and stuffy nose, but you're bouncing back. We took you to the doctor to get you checked out and they said your weight was 14.7 pounds. Big girl! We're taking you for your six month visit on Monday so I'll have your stats then. 

This month you have discovered how to cough. You have the cutest fake cough and love to hear yourself do it! Sometimes we'll cough back and forth, first me then you. It cracks me up! I love that I can interact with you! 

We finally switched you over to size 2 diapers and you fit pretty perfectly in 6 month clothes, but I can get away with putting you in 9 month outfits and you can even get away with 12 month dresses. 

You are growing bigger everyday. You are constantly aware of what is going on around you and you take in everything. Often times you look like you are processing your surroundings.

We are so proud of you, baby, and so proud to be your mommy and daddy! You are such a good baby and a delight to be around. We love you with all our hearts!

Love, 

Mommy

*This month mommy took a ton of pictures for your six month shoot. Get ready for picture overload!

You and your bunny. You love to sleep with bunny and put her over your eyes.

You love to play this little piano that Tank and Nonnie bought you.

Bright eyes : )

You LOVE books! This is one that Mommy likes to read to you before bedtime.

Sweet smiles!

Happy dance!

You are loving your toes lately!

You were getting a little tired of taking pictures...

I wanted to get some Hadley detail shots. Sweet tiny hands.

Precious little ear that listens to everything around!

Sweet little eyes that take in all the sights.

Precious toes that I love to help you count.

Hadley and her 'dada'.
