6 Months!

Sophie is 6 months old!  It has gone WAY too fast.  Boo-hoo!  Anyway, she is doing great.  Her well-child check up was yesterday.  Dr. Stafford said it's time for her to be in her own room--she's a big girl.  I almost cried.  He doesn't sugar coat things.  But I went home and put her pack 'n play up.  She's now in her own room.  We don't have a monitor and Dr. S said not to get one.  Unless we're going outside while she's napping or something.  He said we'll hear her when she cries at night, especially living in an apartment.  Sigh.  Actually, last night was her first night in her own room and she did fine.  Just woke up once like normal. 

Also, Sophie is rolling over more now.  Pretty much just belly to back, but sometimes the other way.  She's not rolling all over the floor yet, but she's definitely getting there.

Dr. S also said we could start feeding her solids--skip the baby food.  She was not interested at all in the mashed potatoes and peas last night.  Of course she loved the nilla wafer Grandma gave her a couple weeks ago.  She must be my child.  Dr. S said she's gaining weight great just on milk so she really doesn't need the solids, but we can start her on them if we want.  We'll probably just keep trying until she's interested.

I asked Travis what else to put about Sophie at 6 months and he said, "She's the cutest, sweetest, most beautiful baby in the whole wide world--no offense to other babies out there." 

18 lbs 2 oz
27 in
85th percentile for both (do you think she's going to be tall?)















Sophie loves her dad!

Here's a quick one (I didn't realize it was on video...)

She really has that tongue thing going! It is SO cute. I agree with Travis. (I had to say the same thing to John today.) She is perfect.

She is a cutie! I love the 6 month stage. So many new fun things esp solid foods. Enjoy :)

Awww...I know it's hard to let them go sleep in their own room. I had a meltdown when Stella moved to her room. I can NOT believe our babies are getting so old!!
