yesterday Maddie sat up on her own!

She has been able to hold herself up for a while now but then would tip over after like 30 seconds. very unsteady.

yesterday morning i sat her up and she stayed there by herself! shes very steady now. so steady that i took my eyes off her to read something and she topped over and hit her head on the floor mat. =( oops. She is still tilted forward a bit so her back is not completely straight up, but shes definitely sitting up.

I cant believe shes 6 months old now. Thats half a year. That makes things such as walking and eating table food feel so close to happening now. These days when I buy her items, I buy them with the intention that she will be walking in 6 months. sheesh. shoes, here we come! hehe.

Still no teeth. Its been too long so I am going to try to stop medicating her at nights. we didnt give orajel for 2 nights and she was fine. I just had to rock her back. Last night she woke up at 9:30 or so, I rocked her back and she didnt need me till 7:15am! We are on week 3 of the night wakings. I am not even sure if its the teeth anymore waking her up. sigh.

For the last week or so Maddie has only been napping twice a day. This is a big change for a baby.

Maddie is constantly grabbing at her feet when shes on her back. 2 times already she has sucked on her toes. hehe.

She is discovering her voice and makes these high pitched sounds. She uses it too when shes whining which could drive a person INSANE! she is babbling but no consonants yet. boooo. =(

In terms of food, Maddie has so far had sweet potatoes, avocado, butternut squash, bananas, apples, pears, peas, carrots, green beans, yogurt. In that order.
