I'm back...kinda :)
I've been busy and haven't had an interest in keeping up with my blog lately. When Amelia turns 9 months, I'll do a post and let you know how she's doing. Here's a recent picture of her though. I love this girl sooooo much. Seriously. There are no words!

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.

1/2 a year already?!
Amelia turned 6 months old on March 21st. I can't believe it! She's been sick, again, so I was behind on taking her pictures.
Weight: over 18 pounds
Height: maybe 26 1/2 is my guess?
Eats: The past few weeks we started introducing some solid foods. She has tried rice cereal, oat cereal, bananas, avocado and sweet potatoes. I plan on making my own baby food. I will just steam the food and use my mini food processor. I bought ice cube trays and will freeze the food for later use. This might take some work, but hopefully I can find some time to do this. I think we can save alot of money this way, and the food will be better and more fresh for her.
Sleep: Terrible. She has been sick twice this past month!
Milestones: She can sit! I'm kinda in a hurry, so I'm not going to ramble on here.
Loves: Lots of things :) Not being sick :)...eating, babbling, playing with her feet.
Dislikes: Getting her face cleaned off...getting her nose suctioned and wiped. Being sick :(
Clothes: She is pretty much in 6-9 for everything now. Her thighs and behind are so chunky now, that she has to wear alot of 12 months pants. Even some of her 6-9 months sleepers are snug around her thighs and waist. She still wears a size 1 shoe though!
Sorry this was so brief. I thought I needed to put at least something on here instead of skipping by 6 months completely. Just been really busy lately! My main goal was filling out her baby book.

Day 8
A Place you've traveled to....
I really haven't been to too many places. I would love to go on a mission trip, first and foremost. And, I would love to go somewhere tropical, to escape this cold climate.
I have been out west three times. I have visited California twice. I have been to Las Vegas twice. I have visited the Hoover Dam twice as well. Florida, DC, Chicago, Texas, Tennessee...and only out of country to Canada.
But the one place that I think everyone needs to visit at least once in their lives is the Grand Canyon. There are no words!!!! God created a masterpiece. You literally just stand there in awe!

Day 7
Day 7---Favorite Movies
I am only going to put one...because this movie I absolutely LOVE!!! The first time I watched it, I was going to Bible School and me and my roommates took out a few hours of a few days, and watched it. I fell in love :) BUT...I only like the A & E Version.
