Lil' Bit turns 6 months old

Remember wee Colette?

Well, she just turned six months old on Saturday.

Colette is happy, she shows off giant gummy grins and recently added her loooong tongue to her grins for when she's really tickled.  We savor her very few laughs (usually related to the noises "beep or bumbumbumbum") and compete to see who can get the biggest smile. 

She's getting the sitting up thing down a little more every day... and is very pleased with herself about it!  She is trying her hardest to crawl, scootch or, really, just move.  She  lies on her tummy and kickes her feet against the floor as hard as she can just to see if it gets her anywhere.  She has started to do a bit of an inchworm backwards (she can really move on the wood floors... she thinks the sliding is pretty awesome, except she'd really rather go forward to to her toys and avoid getting stuck under the couch).

She's become a very distracted little nurser (always afraid of missing out!), but two things will help us get a good session in: sleepiness and sitting on the loveseat by our front window where she can look at the tree outside. 

We had her six month appointment today: 13 lbs 12 oz & 25.75 inches... so she added about 2.5 pounds and 1.5 inches... growing up!

I attempted a consistent photo each month of her with her doll, and decided six months was a good time to get them edited and posted.  It's true that the time seems to have gone quickly, but I also feel that I really soaked up these last six months, I am in awe of how blessed our little family is!
