6 months

My little Scarlett June is 6 months old now. She weighed in at 19.4 lbs, 26.75 inches tall, and 42 inches in head circumference.  She is in the 90 percentile for weight, 85 percentile for height, and 75 percentile for head size.  She is our beautiful big girl!! I really don't know how it is possible but she gets cuter and cuter every day and more fun with every passing minute!

At 6 months Scarlett:

• Can sit up by herself
• Sticks her finger down her throat all the time :(
• Loves to squeal 
• Absolutely hates getting her face wiped
• Can almost get to her knees
• Sleeps through the night (most nights)...Now I just need to learn to sleep through the night again
• Loves to play "Where's Scarlett? Where's Mama? Where's Dada?"
• Loves to jump in our arms
• Really likes to hear me sing "Itsy-Bitsy-Spider"
• Rolls over to get from place to place
• Can scoot herself in circles and to the side
• Loves to laugh at herself in the mirror
• Walks while we hold her hands
• Has a new favorite toy...measuring cups
• Got her two front bottom teeth...but she never lets me snag a pic of them
• Is just the cutest sweetest cuddliest cheekiest little angel
• Fills her mama's and dada's heart with so much happiness, love, and joy.

5 Months

My little princess turned 5 months on september 22nd. She will be 6 months any day now and I just had to do her monthly post before she did. A lot happened in the month of september. I ran a 5k, Doug did a half iron man triathlon, and Scarlett went to the beach for the first time!

At 5 months Scarlett:

• Has started solids. She doesn't like anything sweet. No pears, bananas or peaches. She loves her oatmeal cereal plain. She also loves carrots and squash.
• Started sleeping in her own crib.
• Loves to sleep on her stomach!
• Plays, plays, plays all day long. On her tummy, in her jumper, in exersaucer.
• Will start laughing when she hears me laugh...Like mother like daughter.
• Thinks kids are absolutely fascinating.
• Really thinks my parents dog, Pearl, is hilarious...She even laughs when we just say her name.
• Crossed her first finish line at Doug's big kahuna triathlon.
• Put her feet in the ocean for the first time.
• Wakes me up by grabbing my face (if sleeping next to me), and when in her crib - she lifts her head up so she can see over the crib (where I walk in) and starts talking...she's so sweet!
• Loves her new big girl car seat.
• Got a new car...Well we got a new car.
• Started wearing 9 month sizes!
• Loves to be held, and played with.

Scarlett teaches us every day. We can't believe how much we love her. She is such a blessing, and we are so grateful to be her parents. We still can't believe how lucky we are that she is ours...she is the easiest, happiest, smartest, prettiest, funniest baby ever, and we couldn't be more in love.

Trying to talk

Usually when we talk to our little princess, she will coo, goo, and talk back...However two days ago she decided she wanted to really focus on trying to say what I was saying...So much so, that she is moving her lips, my no sound is coming out. It's the cutest thing I've ever seen. Basically she is a genius baby.

Supermodel, Work, Covergirl!

My muse, My love, My everything.
