6 Months Old!!

We took the Nata to her 6 month well check today. I can't believe how big she is!! Everything was good. She is finally over her ear infections!! She was a show off at the doctor's office. She sat up by herself, talked a bunch, said dadadadada, stood up with papi's help and of course smiled.

So here is what we found out today, she weighs 17 lbs 8oz, is 26 inches long and her head circumference is 16 3/4 inches. She is in the 50-75% for height, 75% for weight, and 50-75% for head circumference.

We decided with the help of the doctor that we are going to start giving her a bottle of formula during the day while at day care. We are doing this because she has become too distracted when I feed her and she is not getting enough liquids. The poor girl has been very constipated and has been given prunes for 3 weeks in a row! Yuck! We have tried giving her water, juice, juice and water, and she spitts out all of them!!

The Nata has learned a lot these past two months since her last check up. She is sitting up, scooting on the floor, she rolls to her tummy to sleep, she is eating veggies and fruits, she is saying dada, baba, and she has even said WOW! By the way, this baby will not eat fruit!! I have to mix it in with the veggies or she won't eat them!

She has the funniest expressions. I keep taking tons of pictures but they just don't do her any justice. She is always smiling, laughing and wanting to play on the floor. She LOVES red toys. Anywhere she goes, she finds a red toy. Her favorite toys at day care are a red Clifford and a little duck bath toy that she loves sticking it's head into her mouth!
