Six Months.

I'm not entirely sure what happened. Six months vanished in the blink of an eye. The cold weather is sinking into memory, the sunshine warming our bones and bringing the world back to life again. My baby girl has hit the half year, almost 26 weeks old. It blows my mind.

Baby V can sit up all by herself, albeit with a wobble here and there. She is constantly moving, wanting so desperately to be able to crawl but not quite figuring it out yet. I have a feeling it won't be long though. She loves to bounce in her chair, marvelling at the colours, shapes and sounds that surround her. She talks so much and is always experimenting with her voice, making new sounds all the time. She can say 'Ma' and 'Da' and she knows who Pearl is when we say her name. Such a clever cookie!

I'm impressed by how well she eats, happy to try anything that is offered. While she wholeheartedly prefers fruits to vegetables, she's more than happy to tuck into an avocado with me! She likes mashed potatoes, bananas, apples and pears, tomatoes, carrots and she's partial to a spoon or two of rice. She's tasted tuna and chicken and had a go at feeding herself. That was messy, but fun too!

I can't believe she's already six months old. It's so exciting to see her grow and learn, every day one step towards that first crawl, her first word. I just wish it wasn't happening quite so quickly!

Happy half birthday baby girl :)

Love, K.
