quick update

Hi guys!

Amelia had her 6 month check-up yesterday. She is now weighing 18 lbs and 15 ounces...with a diaper on. She measured at 26ish inches. It was a good appointment. Doctor said she is healthy and seems to be right where she should be for everything. We asked her about her head being kinda flat. Basically it's not a big deal, it's only a cosmetic thing. She said her's is in the mild-moderate category and that her soft spots are still a good size, which means her head is still taking shape. We just need to keep her off it as much as possible. She did pretty good with her shots. No fevers or anything.

These last few weeks she keeps doing new things. It is so exciting and fun. She sits pretty good and just today she waved bye-bye. My mom was holding her and I was walking away, and we said "wave bye-bye to momma." She did! I called Patrick right away ;). We've been noticing how she checks out little things on everything. She will explore her toys and she even notices things on the wall when we're walking with her. She likes to touch light switches and our thermostat. She can pick up small objects with her thumb and index finger on her left hand mostly (pincer grasp I think??). She still loves kicking her legs and folding her hands together. She loves for us to hold her, walk around and show her new things. She also can say baba and mama now!! She prefers saying baba mostly though. Still waiting for her to say dada. She loves her jumperoo so much that she gave herself a blister on her pinky toe :(

Just a little check-in! She will be 7 months in 2 weeks, can't believe it!

Who's there? and introducing....

Hiya. Just was curious as to who reads my blog. Please leave me a comment and let me know who you are and let me know if you have a blog that I should follow! Thanks :)


And I want to introduce to you my newest nephew Adam David. He weighed 7 lbs. 1 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long. He ended up getting RSV shortly after being born and was hospitalized for it. Thankfully he is getting better and home now. Can't wait to hold him again! Congrats to my brother Nathan and my sis Emileigh oh, and big sister Nataleigh.
