Six Months Old!!

I am now officially 1/2 of a year old! Happy half birthday to me!!

These days, I am into saying "wawa", eating lots of cereal, sweet potatoes, peas, bananas, pears, peaches, carrots, and anything else I come in contact with (my hands, my toys, the cats). I am not into green beans or pureed meat (tried turkey in broth the other day and could not stand it - I screamed).

I am reaching for things now - my toys, the cats, my parents, and don't like to sit up much, but like to stand instead! Mom and Dad think I am going to be an early walker - look out world!

Not only am I more curious about things around me, but I think certain things are really funny and I laugh out loud hysterically - when someone hurts themself, when Mom acts like a fool, when Dad tickles me, etc. In fact, when I am having my diaper changed, I sometimes mistake that for tickling and laugh at that too - especially when I poop! It's pretty funny that adults have to wipe up my poopy!!

Just a week or so ago, I had my picture taken professionally for the first time. I didn't mind it at all, but my Dad says that when I'm 18, I'll be really mad at Mom for making me wear angel wings and hold a bow and arrow like Cupid!!

Pretty soon I have to go back to Dr. Obenrader to get my six month shots, so when I do, I'll be sure to post how much I weigh now and what I measure in at!

Tonight we are getting a lot of snow - my Mom's "friend" Kathy Orr says that we're getting between 8 and 12 inches, so if that happens, we are going to bundle up and make a snowman in our backyard - Mom, Dad & me!!
