Happy Half Birthday Lilybelle!

 I'm going to admit that I probably got a little too excited about my daughter's half birthday. I kept telling everyone today that it was Lilybelle's half birthday. If I wasn't working crazy hours right now I probably would have thrown her a mini birthday party. The thought did cross my mind. But since I am working crazy hours, I contented myself with the following: I made her 6 month onsie, I got her peas all ready, and dressed her in her cupcake outfit today.

So to sum up her half birthday, Lilybelle is six months old today. She has gotten so big, and the time has gone by so fast. Some of her more recent accomplishments include sitting up by herself (she did it for a little bit on Sunday, hasn't repeated it yet), expanding her vocal range, and trying new food. On Sunday I made her a pea puree and a banana puree. In honor of her 6 months, we broke out the pea puree and fed it to her. At first she didn't seem too impressed by it, but she ate it all, and by the end she was excited to get it.

Tim also took the standard 6 month photo. It gets harder each month to take the photo because she doesn't sit still. This month she had an obsession with her feet. Most of the pictures that Tim took she was holding her feet up close to her face. If only I were still that flexible. I leave you with a video of her today. Happy Half Birthday Lilybelle.
