School of Rox- 6 months

Your 6 months photo shoot you were not feeling...but looking sooo pretty as usual
You are STANDING in this picture Roxie...STANDING. We have standing play time a few times a day and you LOVE it.

Your First Valentine's Day loot from mom and dad....we are creating a girly girl with your first purse, ring, new bows and a glitter bracelet.
This is what dinner looks like at our house now. Baby food every where!
I took this, because I thought it was so smart of you when you figured out how to hang your sippy cup on your bouncer.

You have graduated out of your carrier to sitting in high chairs and grocery carts when we are out!
Dinner time....I just love this sweet face!

Daddy reads a bible story to you every night and even though most nights you most enjoy banging on the book, every now and then you get into it and it melts our hearts
.
We just recently started pack n play time, where you have time to play by yourself each day in there and you are so funny during this time. This is what I came into one day.


6 months:
6 month clothes
6-9 month pants
Size 3 diapers

Dr. Stats:
16.11 pounds (60%)
26 inches long (50%)

Updates (this was a productive month!):
You completely sit up
You roll all over to either side 
You get up on all fours and rock all the time
You can push off with your arms and wiggle worm your way to something you want
You CAN sleep 12 hours, but with all the productivity and growing...it was a rough month of sleeping and getting you on a different schedule with food.
You nap two times a day now
You LOVE watching older babies play or getting to look at babies
You talk a TON especially in quite situations...(like when mom and dad got their taxes done)
You can stand and lean against your toys
You want to clap so bad and have almost figured it out. I think you will this month
You almost get waving to someone. 
You answer when we say your name!!

You still are a half thumb sucker and hardly interested in the passy anymore. 
You love chewing on your dolly or mommy's iPhone.

Food:
YOU LOVE VEGGIES and HATE fruits
Your favorites are peas and sweet potatoes and rice cereal
You HATE peaches and will bear apples
You are allergic to oats and squash...hopefully we will grow out of that.

Roxie,

Every stage with you has been more fun that the one before, while I look at a newborn baby and wish you were that small again, its so fun to see you recognize us more and more, know your name, and be able to learn how to do things. You are HILARIOUS and make these faces that have your dad and I rolling. We feel so blessed that God has entrusted us with you. He is so gracious to give us such a precious little girl. You are beautiful and we just adore you.

Love,

momma and daddy
