6 months old and sweeter than ever!

It truly is hard to believe that Harper is already 6 months old! I literally feel like it was yesterday that my doctor looked at me while watching all the machines and said, "Okay, she needs to come out now." And ever since then, she has made her presence known! Her little personality is definitely coming out more each day, and I love it.

Here are some of the things Harper is doing at 6 months:
-Sitting up on her own for the most part... there's the occasional fall and she's not a fan of that happening!
-Eating like a champ... 8oz bottle 4 times a day, and 2 solid meals (about to be 3). We're doing a vegetable a week, to make sure there aren't any allergies, so she's only had sweet potatoes. Not sure what we'll try next!
-Still sleeps great through the night, but naps are a little shady. Some days they are 30 minutes and others 2 hours... you just never know!
-She hardly spits up anymore and is much happier during the day. I'm convinced she had a stomach issue all along! The solids have definitely helped!
-She turns herself around to get to toys when she's on her tummy
-She is still obsessed with her bath
-Loves the playtime in the morning on the blanket in the front yard

That's all I can think of for now... I'm sure I'll think of something else later. But for now, I must get going on dinner for our home group while battling an awful headache! Below are the pictures we had taken in August. This is just a preview of what she took... and I LOVE them! Enjoy!
