Sitting Pretty

As I said in the blog yesterday Reese starting sitting up by herself, no tripod anymore. Well I was able to take some pictures of her. I was so excited to see her doing it. Its weird because one day she couldn't do it then the very next day...waaala.

Happy 6 months Reesey Bear!!!

WOW!!! I can't believe my baby girl is 6 months old today! Where has the time gone? Garrett made a comment tonight, he said "I used to sit it my chair and just have my phone and now there is a bottle right here, and a burp rag and a pair of Reese's pants on my chair" I just thought that was funny......welcome to parenthood. As I sit here and look at the living room floor there are toys scattered all over the place. I had a pile of books on the couch, the end table has all sorts of baby essentials on it. 6 months ago this would have bothered me. I hated having things out of place and things scattered everywhere, now it's just the way it is and I've learned not to let it bother me. It seems like no matter how much I clean our house its never really clean, now that's a little frustrating.

Reese seems to have just went through a growth spurt. She seems so much longer to me. Today we went and saw Katy at the hospital and had her sitting on the bed and she was sitting up all up all by herself, not tripod style, just sitting there. I had to catch her a few times but I was so excited to see her doing it! She is still all over the place and is still trying to crawl but can't quite figure it out.It's just a matter of time though. She does this worm looking thing sometimes and cracks me up. She likes to stand or sit on your lap and bounce. Pippo really had her going the other day and it was hilarious.  She only takes 30 minute naps during the day which makes it hard to get much done. I have been trying to stretch out the time in between her naps but there still only 30-45 minute naps.We have been taking her with us during church service instead of the nursery the past month or so and she does fantastic. Its funny because she is awake for all the songs then as soon as preacher starts preaching she falls asleep, and as soon as he is done she wakes up. 

Today was the day we started veggies! Carrots in fact. She seemed to like them at first then wasn't sure about them. She did eat the whole thing, took a little while but she did.  She has had a stuffy nose the past week and a half, I think due to allergies and maybe the weather change.  She wont let me suction her nose, she screams and squirms. Reese and I will be going to Texas this week with Pippo and Pappy to see The Happy Hatch Family and we are very excited, just wish daddy could come.
