Happy six months to me!  I turned half a year old on November 22, and my Mommy and Daddy decided to mark the occasion with my very first professional photo shoot – done by Mary Nichols Photography.  I think she really captured my chubby cheeks, and my face-splitting smile!  And since she is a consummate professional, she didn’t even blink an eye when I peed all over her rug.

I’m doing much better with sleeping through the night, since my parents moved me to a pack ‘n’ play in my own room a few weeks ago.  Although one or two night wakings are still routine for me, it’s a much more livable situation for everyone now that I’m not up every hour or two during the night looking for comfort feedings!

In other news, I weighed 20 pounds exactly at my six month doctor’s appointment; I was 27.25 inches long, and my head was 18.5 inches in circumference.

Current likes: Sitting unassisted in my high chair, making gurgling noises in the back of my throat, and grabbing my feet (an endless source of entertainment!)

Current dislikes: Loosing my balance and tipping over while sitting (it startles me!)  Guess I need some more practice!
