Britton is six months old today! Where did the time go? We don't go to the doctor for her check-up and dreaded shots until Thursday, so no stats yet. But she is getting so big. The hub has been enticing Britton with tummy time by making Sadie hang around. Britton loves Sadie so much that she tries to get to her, making crawling motions. This girl is going to be moving soon! She can sit on her own, though only for a minute or two. Britton is very excited about the world around her and now likes laying on her back next to me while I hold books overhead and read them. She is teething up a storm, and I feel a bottom tooth under the gum just waiting to erupt. Britton is wearing 6-9 month clothing now, and just started using the high chair for eating, instead of the Bumbo.
Speaking of eating, this girl easily puts away 2.5-4 ounces of baby food in one sitting. We've only progressed to baby food for dinner, but hopefully she'll start eating food at her other meals too. The oatmeal cereal she once loved has been pushed to the side for veggies. She loves green beans, peas, squash, carrots, peas/spinach/pear mixture, and tonight she had green beans and rice dinner. She will tolerate apples but hates bananas and sweet potatoes. And she has recently started trying to take the spoon from me and feed herself. The hub got her handles for her bottle so we can get her started on holding it for herself.
