Dear Lily Jane
I can’t believe last Sunday was you half birthday, really 6
months already Lily Jane you have to stop growing up so fast. You went for your
6-month check up and had to get 2 shots, you were not happy at all. You weighed
15.4 (28%) and height was 25 in (11%).. You are still in 3 months, and 3-6
months clothes but they are starting to get a little tight so we are going to
be moving up to 6-month clothes soon. You are still wearing size 2 diapers. You
are taking 2-3 naps a day but you are starting to fight taking your afternoon
nap, which sometimes makes for a long evening. You are going to bed at 7:30 and
getting up at 12:00ish and 4ish and 6:30. I wish you would drop the 12ish
feeding but it is so worth seeing your cute little face in the middle of night.
You have started rolling over in your crib and sleeping on your stomach. You
are becoming a little mini me of your daddy. Everywhere we go everyone says how
much you look like your daddy, but you still act like your mommy so sweet.
You are so close to sitting up on your own and we keep
practicing everyday. Some of your other favorites are hanging out in your
jumper, chewing on Sophie, rolling and moving all over the floor, and being
held. You went to the pool for the first time, and you absolutely loved it. You
were kicking your little legs so fast. Your Papaw, Uncle Cody and Aunt Melissa
were there. So glad that you liked it because we will be going to the pool all
summer long.
You have started to eat solids. I have been making all your
food and I have enjoyed every minute of it. So far there is not a food you wont
eat. The foods you have tired so far are peas, green beans, sweet potatoes,
bananas, applesauce, and squash. You are still eating oatmeal as well. You are
still eating 5-6oz bottles and now you want to hold your own bottles and feed
your self.
You were dedicated at church this pass weekend and it made
Mommy so happy. I am so happy to be able to raise you in a godly home and I
can’t wait to teach you all about God. All your grandparents came and your
Uncle Cody and Aunt Melissa came. You are surround by so many people that love
you so much. We have enjoyed these past 6 months with you and would never
change them. You bring so much joy into our lives. We love you!!!!!!
