6 months old!






I can't believe that she is already 6 months old. Where has the time gone? Frankie is by far the happiest baby, ever! We had a rocky first couple of months of life, but man, is she ever making up for it! She went to her well check the other day, got 5 shots (poor baby), and was given a clean bill of health. She weighs 16 lbs. is 23 inches long and has a HUGE head, or at least that is what the doctor says. He even tries to joke with me that it runs in the family....I see no humor in that at all :) This was the first time that she has touched grass and at first and it totally blew her mind. She just stared at it, and touched it, and looked at me like "What is this stuff?" After a few minutes she was ok, and actually seemed to be enjoying herself. Here are a few things she has been up to lately:

-She scoots on her back. Yeah, she doesn't want to try to crawl, she just goes directly to her back and pushes her body back with her feet. Not a bad way to get around either, she goes everywhere like that.
-Sits up all by herself now, and proud of it. She loves to sit with toys all around her. She will stay entertained for a while.
-LOVES books. Her face just lights up when you read to her or show her pictures.
-We went to the pool a lot this summer and I finally got her into the water. She loves it. She just splashes and splashes and laughs when the water hits her face.
-Sleeps pretty well through the night.
-Teething like crazy but not bothering her too bad.
-Constantly makes this really low, grunting noise like she is pooping or something
-Cannot eat any applesauce or apricots at all....boy did we ever have some constipation issues!
