Bella is 6 months

WOW!! I know I say it every month but it is so hard to believe that time is flying like it is and she is growing right before our eyes. She is changing so much every day. She is almost sitting up. She will sit for a few minutes or seconds depending on her mood and then fall over. She has a funny new habit when she is tired. Her paci can be in her mouth and she puts her thumb on top of her paci with the rest of her fingers sticking straight up in the air. This doesn't have to be on her paci, you may find her with it on her forehead or shoulder or chin or cheek or if your real lucky she may put it on you, she just has to put it somewhere. This happens most often when she is tired but she does it other times as well.

She has also rediscovered her hands and feet which cracks me up. She likes for everyone to also look at her hands. She shows them to us in case we have forgotten what they look like. She has also discovered that she make a really high pitched squeal. It is a lovely sound that I look forward to hearing any chance I get. She does it when she is happy, sad, angry, mad, you get the picture! It is LOUD!!!

She also absolutely loves her ExerSaucer. If she isn't in it, she stares at it until you put her in it.

Here you can see that she is longing to be in her ExerSaucer. Don't worry her Daddy put her in it right after I took the picture.

One of my very favorite things she does - smiles with her whole body when she catches you looking at her. She will also do it when you aren't looking at her and you catch her just grinning away when you do look at her. MELTS MY HEART!!! She can have whatever she wants when she does this. I love it.

She goes to the doctor next week so we will be back with her stats after that.
