6 MONTHS OLD!!!!!!

Delaney is now 6 months old---I can't believe it. She is doing new thing every day. When you pick her up, she does this thing where she reaches for your face like she is a person with visual impairment. She feels your different facial features like that is the way she determines who you are. It is really cute. Delaney is now dancing too. When you hold her, or put her on her stomach and say "wiggle" she moves side to side and shakes her head like she is saying "no". It is her form of dancing.


Delaney can now sit up by herself for short periods. She then tends to topple over backwards and giggles.

Delaney loves to stand up with one hand assisting. I call it her surfer move and we like to sing the Beach Boys during this activity. Poor girl. I am so obnoxious.

Delaney went to her 6 month checkup on Friday and she is now 15 pounds, 1 ounce, and 26 inches long. She is still tall and skinny, but Dr. Moore said she is healthy and looking "perfect". Dr. Moore gave the A-okay to start food, so Randy and I cooked up the rice cereal and Delaney was ready to go. We bought her one of those cool Space Saver high chairs that fits right at our breakfast table and we love it. Delaney was excited about eating and really loved her new "candy" spoons as Randy called them.

Delaney shoved the spoon in her mouth. She really wanted to be independent and do it herself.

Delaney gets really messy and then upset at the end after the food was gone. Just like her mommy....ready for the full buffet.


***** Videos for sitting up and her first meal are coming soon. They are soooo entertaining.
