6 Months Old!

Cooper was six months old last week! We went for her six month check-up today, so I wanted to wait until now to post all her stats and pictures. She is growing so fast and I can't believe she is already half a year old!

At the doctor today, she weighed 17 lbs 7 oz, which is in the 75th percentile. She is 26 inches long, which is the 60th percentile, and her head was 42 1/2 cm, which is the 50th percentile. The doctor said everything looks great and that you can tell from those thighs that she is still nursing! Ha!

Sweet girl had to get one oral vaccine and three shots...she did not like those! Poor thing. She has been sleeping all morning since then, but I'm about to have to go wake her up to feed her.

Cooper, here is some of what you are doing at 6 months:

• eating cereal two meals a day, nursing four times at 7:30, 11:30, 4:30 and 8:00
• sleeping from 8-7:30 at night, and taking three naps during the day
• holding your baby while you sleep
• sitting up for short periods of time by yourself
• talking to us and your sister a ton!
• smiling all the time! You are such a happy and easy-going baby and you never fuss!
• reaching for and grabbing things you want. You can also transfer things like your sass from hand to hand and put it in your mouth by yourself!
• playing on your playmat, in your exersaucer, or in your bumbo a lot.
• making us so happy!! You are so sweet and cuddly and we just love having you in our world.

Happy 6 month old birthday, Coop!!
