Half a year

Hard to believe, but my little girl is six months old today. The snowfall prohibited us from taking her in for her well-check today, but when I do get her in, I'll make sure to record the stats. Kate is busy, feisty, determined, dramatic, and usually content. Solid foods, so far, have not been her "bag," but she is starting to enjoy carrots and applesauce. And she's now taking a bottle, even from her dad, which gives me a little more freedom. She'll sleep for a good ten-hour chunk most nights, but her naps are not quite up to par. She loves manipulating toys, especially now that she can sit up in the Boppy for up to twenty minutes at a time. She can almost bring her new pink sippy-cup up to her mouth to drink. Almost. She also looks at Jack like he hung the moon. Jack does his best to entertain her; he's a magnificent older brother! Today they play-wrestled for the first time, and both of them laughed like crazy.
