Six Months

Hello. My name is Lainey Rebecca. I am six months old. 

I can roll over, front to back, and back to front. This affords me the most opportunity for reaching my toys and getting into things. 

I like to sleep on my side. 

I can sit up all by myself. Sometimes is still wobble and fall, but not very often. 

I can go from crawling position to sitting up. 

I am starting to crawl, but I still resort to lunging. 

I just started eating solids. My mom tried Avocado first, but then went with bananas. It took me a few days to figure out how to swallow without gagging, but I think I have it down now. I eat about 1/4 of a banana a day right now. Mom says Emma isn't allowed to feed me unless I also need to take a bath, because I end up wearing lots of food. 

I got two teeth, both within a week before I turned six months. Look close, maybe you'll see them. 

I love the water. I will stay in the bath until it gets cold, and I love going swimming! 

My mom is my favorite person. I really like her, but she wishes I still liked to hang out with other people too.

 I love my family. My brothers make me smile and laugh, and my sister loves to take care of me. I like to play with my toys, and snuggle my Dad. I love to smile at people especially when they will talk to me. I am happy when I have a full belly, and I have gotten sleep, but I still spit a lot, and don't really like to nap. Mom keeps telling me she is going to put me on a schedule, but I am sneaky and plan to teeth, or get a cold during the same time and completely frustrate her. Being six months old is hard, but I'm tough, and I can handle it.
