Sweet Stella's 6 mos.

this is a few weeks late, but it's hard to believe that stella is 6 months old already. she is still so very sweet! here are her 6 mos stats for my record keeping, so feel free to tune out if you're bored....

stella can sit up well on her own now, and rolls all over the place on the floor. Anything she finds she puts in her mouth. she really enjoys playing with her toys, and will grab at anything within her reach. stella is very aware when she is all alone, and she cries when you leave the room or when she catches sight of you and you aren't holding her or right with her. she loves to stand in the palm of her daddy's hands and "walk around". she is very fond of most baby foods and cries whenever we are eating and she is not. she loves to eat those biter bisquits and graham crackers. she likes formula now and is taking a bottle a day. in fact she now kicks her legs excitedly and then cries when she sees a bottle (a big change from 2 months ago). stella still usually takes 3 or 4 naps a day, usually 2 decent ones and a few catnaps in the car and in between. she goes to bed around8:30 ish and is sleeping till around 7am. she loves to sleep on her stomach with her rabbit and rubs one of the ears between her fingers. she no longer likes to sleep when you are holding her, she just wants her crib....it's so sad! Stella, you are such a blessing to our family. The kids still cannot get enough of you and at 6 months still fight over who gets to hold you when you are awake. we love you!
