Six Months


Oh, six months is so much fun!!  Natalie's personality is so charming.  She studies her world very intensely, and has become very good at grabbing, manipulating and dropping her toys.  When she sees a person she knows, she has the sweetest grin.  She continues to adore Nathan, and he is still the only one who can get her really and truly laughing. 

Sleeping is going well.  She usually goes to bed around 7:15.  Todd loves to rock her to sleep.  When I try to rock her, Natalie gets nursing on the brain, so she's usually awake when I'm the one putting her to bed. :)  She usually sleeps through until sometime between 4:30 and 5:45am.  She is not much of a napper, especially at daycare.  Usually she takes one really long 3-4 hour nap on Saturday as a recovery from a week of twenty minute naps.

Natalie loves the bathtub, and has started splashing, which is really cute.  We took both kids to family swim at the YMCA last week, and Natalie was so happy and relaxed in the water.  I hope that it stays that way!

At her six month check-up, Natalie was a real sweetheart.  She was all smiles for the nurses, and only cried for a few seconds after her immunizations. Here are her stats:

Weight: 16 lbs, 3oz, 50th percentile
Height: 26", 50th percentile
Head Circumference: they didn't give me the number, but she's in the 75th percentile
