6 Month Dr. Visit

You just had your 6th month visit and your current stats are:

weight: 18lbs 5oz, almost 90th percentile
height: 26 3/4in, 75th percentile
head circumference: 17.95in, OFF THE CHARTS

You had a large noggin in-utero as well, so that's nothing new :) Dr. Lund says that you are getting your bottom two teeth-your gums are "thinning out." Whatever that means. But it would most definitely explain your crabbiness for the past couple days. She also said we could begin YoBaby and we have! Your current foods that you eat are:
-all the baby cereals, rice, oat and barley
-sweet potatoes
-avocado
-bananas
-beans
-apples
-acorn squash
-peaches
-plums
-chicken
-Gerber puffs
-cucumber
-YoBaby
That's in order of appearance and you love every single one of them! :)
You are loving that you can sit now and every day it gets a little longer (you don't really love the falling over part of sitting...but who would). We had your 6th month pics taken and I can not wait until we get them...they will be sooooo cute! We are going camping again next week so hopefully you do as well as you did on our last camping trip. We enrolled you in swimming lessons and those begin in September. Mommy is very excited about them and you are sure to love them!!!
Daddy's job is very frustrating right now for everyone (except you:) ). He had gone 8 months of not working 40 hours. This week is the first week he has worked 40 hours since you have been born, due only to inventory, because the Walkers want EVERYTHING counted. We are hoping to know tomorrow if he has a job and how much he will be getting paid. We were supposed to know yesterday but here's to hoping for tomorrow! We were also supposed to know July 3rd...I think I'll leave it at that.
BUT if there is one thing that God has taught us during this 8 month trial (which is hopefully ending) it is how to live frugally and not spend so much money. Go us.


We took you blueberry picking on one of Daddy's voluntary mandatory days off. I may or may not have scratched your leg on a blueberry bush.

Family Photo-You are pulling one of your many faces :)


Last but not least I didn't post any of the pictures that we got taken in June. They are of our baby and 2 friends babies. Adelyn was 5 months, Will 11 months and Chloe was 8 months.

Did I mention I LOVE Will's faces! He has the greatest expressions! I hope A is as expressive as he is!

The two cutest girls ever! =)

Mm hmm. Couldn't you just eat them up!?
They are so precious.
