6 Months

Yes.  Our baby is 6 months old!  She had her checkup today and was a little rockstar.  She's still tall and skinny, weighing 13 lbs. 6 oz. (6%) and 26.5 inches (75%).  She would NOT put her head down and has some tough little abs.

She loves squash, green beans, kicking, playing with the curtains in our bedroom, kicking, her feet and hands, kicking and trying to dive out of the Bumbo and any other seat we put her in. 



We also got her pictures taken last weekend and got them back today. 
Here are a few of the favorites:









I'm going to have a proud mom moment for a minute, so feel free to skip the rest of my ramblings....
Everywhere we go with her, people always comment on her.  The usual comments are: "She is so gorgeous!"  "Look at those beautiful eyes."  "What a beautiful baby."  "She is so happy!  She's so cute!"  I was at Bed, Bath, and Beyond with my sister and one of the workers there (a man) stopped and played with her feet and kept saying how beautiful she was. 

At church, we have a lot (and I mean a LOT) of elderly people.  There are walkers, canes, and hearing aids everywhere you turn.  The cute little old ladies always stroke her arm and say how cute she is.  There are two little old men in particular who absolutely adore Molly.  One of them has taken to holding her during Sunday School and getting her to sleep.  He always touches his head to her feet or puts his face close to hers and mimics what she is doing.  She seems to be quite fond of him and it's the cutest thing to watch. 

Molly is the most content little girl.  She loves to cuddle and loves to fight taking naps...which is not fun but it's kind of funny to watch her rub her eyes and not be able to hold her head up, but still not give in to sleep.  We're amazed every day at how beautiful and perfect Molly is.  We feel so blessed to be her parents and to get to enjoy this little miracle every day.  I can't get enough of just staring at her perfect little face and looking through these pictures.  Looking at all the pictures, I have to say, we do have the most beautiful little girl ever.  We love her more than anything!
