Here we are at six months, 1/2 way to her first birthday! I really wish time would slow down. I held a friend's week old baby yesterday and that time with Kate is already a blur :(

Kate loves:
Mommy
Milk
Laughing at her sister and brother
Putting everything in her mouth
We have been introducing foods for the last month. I need to be better at it... sometimes it's every few days before we try another food and has only been at dinner time. So far carrots seem to be her favorite! She has tried peas, green beans, sweet potatoes and peaches. She did not like the peaches! She also likes teething biscuits!
I am very proud to say that she is still 100% mommy's milk. I can't even remember the last time she had a bottle. We have a pretty good routine down!
If she has the day to herself, she would nap three times a day. It's hard with Max and Claire's schedule to make that happen every day. She usually naps 1.5 hrs each nap, sometimes 2-2.5. Nighttime sleep is not so great. Part of that is my fault. She still wakes up every three hours. I try to give her paci and walk back out but she doesn't have that! She cries until I scoop her up and feed her. I think I'm going to start giving her a bottle before bed so I know her tummy is getting full. I said I was going to start sleep training at six months, but I can't stand listening to her cry. I am exhausted tho!
We have her six month appointment next week. I'll be interested to see how much she has grown since her four month appointment.
Little punky wears mostly 3-6 months, just recently moving into some of her six month clothes. She is getting baptized next weekend!
