Presley turns 6 months!


Happy 6 month birthday baby girl!! What a quick 6 months it has been. I look at her some days and just get teary eyed that she is growing up so fast. I understand now why parents want to keep the baby, a baby. Here are a few tidbits about Presley:

- She smiles pretty much anytime you look at her. She would smile all the time if she could but I think her cheeks get too heavy. :)
- She loves to have something in her mouth at all times. It doesn't matter...fingers, hands, toes, toys, blankets, my shirt, my hair, etc...
- She loves her sleep. She is taking 3 solid naps everyday and goes to bed between 6-6:30 pm. She wakes up around 6am and plays in her crib till I get her at 7:30am.
- She is amazed and in love with Brooke. She stares at her all day long.
- She is loving her baby food and am keeping my fingers crossed that I'm going to turn her into a good eater!
- She spits up all the time! Brooke never spit up. Literally, I don't think she ever did. Presley spits up a ton and smiles right after. Ugh! I'm just glad it's not hurting her.
- She has been turning over and rolling all around for about 2 months. She is trying very hard to crawl and it seems like it won't be long till she is.
- We thought she was losing her hair but we were wrong...it's growing! Yeah... I love her curly brown hair. The hair coming in is very light so we may have another blondie!
- She is talking a ton and loves to babble very loud. I think she is trying to talk over Brooke. Good luck with that one, Presley, your sister talks ALL DAY LONG! :)
- Presley is sitting up on her own now but certainly still takes a spill every now and then.
- She is my little love bug and I could just kiss on her all day long.

At her 6 month checkup this is where she measures:
Weight- 16.5 pounds (60% percentile)
Length- 26.5 inches (77% percentile)
