Alexis is 6 months old!

Six MONTHS OLD!  1/2 a year!  WHAT?!?!?!


I am in shock that we have a soon to be three year old boy and a six month old baby girl!  I didn't think it would be possible that Alexis could have brought so much joy to our lives over the past six months.  What can I say other than we are all head over heels in love with this bundle of giggles.



At 6 months old Alexis:

  • has her very first cold and had to get on antibiotic eye drops for the first time 
  • wears size 6-9 month clothes
  • wears size 3 diapers
  • has 2 teeth (bottom front)
  • is sleeping in her crib instead of the pack n play (starting tonight)
  • can pick up and grab objects
  • is gaining more control over all her movements
  • can sit up on her own for a long time unassisted 
  • is slowly getting interested in eating solid foods, so far just carrots
  • can lift most of her body up when laying on tummy
  • can roll from side to side and has rolled completely over a few times
  • LOVES her feet and fingers
  • has the longest hair on a baby i've ever seen
  • has the most beautiful blue eyes, just like her brother
  • smiles and laughs when you tickle her
  • talks all the time
  • puts every thing she touches in her mouth


Alexis, 

You are such a joy and bring such happiness to our lives.  We are blessed beyond measure to have you as our daughter (sister, granddaughter, niece...).  Watching you grow and seeing your personality blossom is so fun.  You are the sweetest most lovable baby on earth.  Unfortunately, you recently caught your very first cold along with the rest of the family.  You seem to be doing much better than every one else though, so that's good.  I am a little sad that the past six months have gone by so fast, but look foraged to every tomorrow.  :)  WE LOVE YOU ALEXIS, you beautiful funny baby!

Love,
Mommy and Daddy
