What is Laura doing at 6 months old?
She growls. Just opens her mouth wide and makes this deep growly sound. Lynne says she sounds like one of the boys at daycare.
She still loves daycare.
She is starting to really take notice of Toby and Miranda. She'll grab a handful of their fur if they get too close. Miranda keeps her distance. Toby isn't that smart yet...
She will happily play by herself for a short while - either sitting on the floor or in her exercauser or in her highchair.
She is sitting on her own - unsupported - has been for about 3.5 weeks now!
She is up a couple times a night for a full "meal". I think a lot of people think this is too often for her age, but I really think she has reverse cycled herself. Reverse cycling is when a breastfed baby eats more at night than they do during the day... some days she only takes 7-10 ounces at daycare. Most days she takes 12. I don't mind so much as it means I don't have to pump as much for her!
She loves to stand. At anytime when she's fussy - just have to put her on her feet and no matter what she was fussing about, she forgets about it and gets a big grin on her face.
She rolls her ankles in if her stance isn't far enough apart.
She is solidly in a 6 month outfit and a few of her 9 month clothes are starting to fit well too.
She still has no teeth... some days I think they're trying to come through, but for the most part her temperment is wonderful!
She has the best giggle ever! Daddy's scratchy face is sure to get her laughing when he kisses her.
She can be perfectly content playing - and if she gets a glimpse of mommy she fusses until I go to her... uh-oh - is this separation anxiety/clingyness starting now?
She still fits in her infant carseat - although she's getting really heavy to lug around!
She's still totally breastfed... not sure when we'll start solids, although I know that any time from her on out is perfectly fine. She seems content still, so no rush.
She does love to watch us eat though!
She is still in her medium sized cloth diapers... and they legs are fitting better than they did about a month or so ago. She's in a size 3 disposable diaper.
She has her 6 month appointment next week so I'll post her weight/height stats then...
