Dear Camryn...

6 months ago our lives changed in a way we could have never known until it actually happened. 6 months ago our lives became more meaningful, deeper, richer, more complete. 6 months ago we welcomed you into our arms and have loved you every second since!
It was rough on you coming into this world...I don't think you wanted to come quite yet, but we kind of made you! We just couldn't wait to meet this sweet little person growing inside me!

Ever since you were born, you've been super busy! You've always loved to kick your legs, move your arms, and now you roll around like crazy and you love the jumper. You are very close to crawling, I think it will happen any day now! I love to go into your room in the morning to see the huge beautiful smile you give me! It gives me butterflies every time :)
At 6 months you weigh 15 lbs. 15 oz. (51%) and you are 17.5 inches (96%) long! You're our long skinny girl.

Some things you're doing at this age:

-sitting up by yourself
-rolling both ways
-giving kisses
-"bonking" your head
-babbling
-spitting bubbles with your mouth
-standing when we hold your hands
-sleeping at least 12 hours at night
-smiling

Some things you love:
-playing with mom & dad
-your exersaucer
-your jumper
-sleeping
-taking baths
-eating
-moving around
-watching baby einsteins
-sticking out your tongue
-sucking on your fingers or anything you can get into your mouth...
-...except for a bottle...you will NOT take a bottle!

Look at this smile!


We are so happy to have you in our family and we love you SO much! Thank you for being such an amazing baby girl!
