Six Months.

Each month, when Emma turns another month older, I take some pictures and choose one to share on the blog. Not this time! Too many precious pictures to choose only one! So you get a bunch this month! Sweet little-girly pose!
Connell wanted in on the photo shoot
We even did a wardrobe change since she was having so much fun! Look at those teeth!
Just cute!
Even cuter!

I will have a truly difficult time putting into words what this baby girl has brought to our family these past 6 months, and how much we love her. She is a joy. Simply a joy.

We took Emma to the pediatrician for her 6 month visit. She now weighs 16.8 pounds and is

26-1/4 inches long. She is doing everything she should be and then some!

Emma, here is what you are up to at 6 months:

• You are wearing size 2-3 diapers. It's a huge challenge to get a diaper on you these days, as you would prefer to just roll and roll and squirm away from me. Which is interesting, because now when I try to dress Connell, he imitates you and rolls around and makes "Emma" sounds. He loves you to pieces.
  
• Your two bottom teeth are almost fully in. You smile so big all the time, so we see them alot!
  
• You can still squeeze into some 3-6 month clothes, but more and more, you need 6-12.
  
• You are loving eating cereal in the morning. The first few times, you weren't so sure, but now, you attack the spoon. It's hilarious. You really get silly when Connell feeds you. You give him a hard time because you always try to grab the spoon.
  
• Not that you will ever care to know, but you are a great eater and have been nursed in so many different locations, it's almost comical! Guess that's a second child thing...
  
• You have the cutest laugh I've ever heard, well, along with your big brother's laugh. We are so happy that you are so happy.
  
• BIG NEWS - you started sitting on your own right after turning 6 months old. You and Connell both think it's cool!
  
• I can tell that you love me, and that you love Connell, but let's just go ahead and say, you are already a DADDY'S GIRL!
  Connell at 6 months!
