6 months

Yesterday Kirby turned 6 months young! We had a day full of doctor's appointments for the celebration. We had to get her sonogram at 10:30, meet with the orthopedic at 12:50, and then head to Calallen at 3:30 for her 6 month checkup. The brace gets to come off and stay off!!!As you can see, she is thoroughly thrilled! She had to get 4 shots while at her pediatric visit. I forgot that the last time she had these she had a rough night ... she had a rough night again last night. But she made it through and woke up smiling! :)
At 6 months Kirby:
Weighs 15 lbs., 5 oz.
Is 25" long
Eats avocados, bananas, sweet potatoes, peas, pears, and rice cereal (not her favorite).
Still breastfeeds (very hard to do with school, but I am trying hard!)
Not going to mention anything about sleeping, because when I do it seems to change! But, she sleeps about 14 hours in a 24 hour period.
We can hear "muuuma" and sometimes "duuudda", which the doctor said was very much her saying momma and dadda.
Is happy, happy, happy!
Is starting to be able to sit by herself for about 3 seconds before dumping over to one side.
Loves peek-a-boo.
Loves her tongue and her ears.
Learning "more" and "all done" in sign language.
Likes her red cup in the bath tub more than any other bath toy.
Scoots around and around wherever she is laying, but not crawling yet.
As soon as you set her down, is over on her tummy with her head way up in the air like a turtle.
Loves baseball games! Last Sunday I had a Flawless Faces Mary Kay skin care class at our house. It was so much fun getting to play with the new foundation shades and I really appreciate my friends that were so willing to help me with my next level of training. I am excited to see where the Lord leads this business opportunity. I just need to make sure everyday, I am turning it over to Him and using the gifts that He has given me to the fullest.
Lord, give me strength for the next few months .... 60 more days ...
"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10
