5 1/2 months!

I know I say this repeatedly, but time really does go by so fast. In two weeks Maegan will be six months old. That's halfway to a year! I'm in shock....seriously. She is getting bigger by the day and doing so much. Her newest craze is splashing in the bath tub. If we sit her up, her arms just start pumping and the water flies everywhere! No one is safe, not even the floor.


Right now we are in the process of teaching her to put herself down for a nap. When she gets fussy we let her lay down on the couch and let her go. It's going to take time, but she's doing pretty good. Of course, I have to have my cuddle moments. There is nothing more relaxing then letting a baby sleep on your chest, at least for me. I cherish these quiet moments, as I'm sure any mother does.

We found this dress in her vast expanse of clothing and I loved this hat! She just looks so darn cute. And she didn't even cry or try to take it off. Jeremy bought her sunglasses yesterday (I still have to get a picture of that) and she hates them! She tears them right off her face.

She doesn't love spending time on her tummy, so it's taking some time getting her used to it. But she does love sitting and standing up. Hopefully it won't be too long til she can sit up on her own. That would be immensely helpful.

Just a cute pic of what she looks like post bath time.

Last week after her bath I decided to play with her hair and see how long it was, and this little mo-hawk was the result. Ironically it stayed in her hair overnight and the next day. Her hair is growing in and I am hoping it will be longer soon so I can do some cute things with it.

I honestly can't believe it 6 months! Where have the last 6 months gone? I haven't even seen your baby since she was just tiny, I can't believe how she is grown. She is such a cutie!!

The picture of you and Maegan is so precious. That is so sweet that she'll fall asleep on you. She is beautiful!
