Hannah is SIX months

Our baby is 6 months already, and has stolen our hearts with her good temperament and smiles. She can sit up for a little while, but we had Kelsey stay right by her when we took the pics of her sitting in case she started to get wobbly. She likes to say, "yeah, yeah, yeah.." We're working on "dada" and "mama." She sleeps through the night still, goes to bed around 8 or 9pm, I feed her before I go to bed, she wakes up around 5 or 6, I feed her, she goes back to bed until 8 or 9am. Not bad.

She is really growing! She is a maniac when she's at the table with us, always trying to get her little hands on whatever we're eating. We feed her rice cereal with some veggie baby food and sweet potato puffs. She loves those, but can't figure out how to get them to her mouth yet. Here are her stats after her 6 month old check up:

15 lbs.
25 inches tall
30th %ile for height and weight
77th % for head circumference (go figure) 

Hannah LOVES her big brother and sister. She lights up when they walk in the room and loves to watch them play. She immediately gives mom "the don't you dare leave me" look if I start to walk away and she's alone with Aiden. He loves her, but can be rough. Kelsey is a really good helper with her. She holds her when I need her to or gets a tissue, a diaper - whatever. I think they'll be good buddies. Kelsey LOVED helping me today with the pictures of Hannah.



Here she is at 6 months in the same red dress that I took pics of Kels at 6 months.

Don't you think they look pretty different!? I thought they looked more similar, but this really shows the differences. Hannah's hair is so blonde, but there is not very much of it. Her eyes seem to be a lighter shade of blue. Her face is more oval and she looks even MORE like Tally than Kelsey! I didn't know that was possible.

Here's Aiden when he was 6 months. I guess none of them look THAT much alike.


Here are a few other cute pics of her:


 Cute baby, love her eyes and her smile! Melts my heart, makes me want to snuggle her right now

Whatever mom, I'm SO done with this! 

Look mom, no hands!

All three this August

I thought all my pics were going to look something like this:

So imagine my surprise when I found one where they are all actually looking, not freaking out, not making completely silly faces...that's what I call a miracle. I turned this B&W and cropped it to a square, going to hang it - love these little guys.
