Still for a second

Our six month old in the morning

6 Months Old!!!

Molly is six months old today.... and she's changing RADICALLY. New skills include:

1. Eating - rice cereal!
2. Sitting up - she just started sitting on her own this past weekend, but now she's a total pro, and apparently wants to spend all of her time sitting!
3. Laughing - okay, so she's laughed for a while, but her recent laughing is totally infectious and joyful
4. Grabbing onto things very intentionally and manipulating them. She's been doing some of this for a long time, but the behavior has taken a radical shift. For example, in her exersaucer she's playing with all of the toys and pulling hard on things to see if she can get new things to move. More things are making their way into her mouth, too.
5. Talking -- well, vocalizing. She's done this for a long time too, but now it appears to be more directed at the person she's looking at (instead of simply for her own amusement).

Gosh, we're so lucky to have such a happy, fun baby!

Molly likes to jump around, whether in chairs or while being held. So we decided that she should would really like a "door jumper".

Wendy is testing the camera of a cell phone at the mall. Since we use cell phone cameras so much these days, it is important to have a good one.

Molly with friends

Since Mommy is away, daddy went to Teresa and James house for dinner. It gave Molly and Teresa time to play together.
