6 Months Old!!!!

Wow where has the last 6 months gone?  The months seem to be flying by lately.  Kayden is growing very fast, faster than Dustin and I would like.  She hasn't gone in for her 6 month check up yet, but I'm sure she weighs in the 16lb range.  She has been attending daycare for a month now and really seems to enjoy it.  She doesn't cry when I leave and when we pick her up, all we get is lots of smiles.  Makes me feel better about leaving her, knowing that she can handle it like a pro.

This month has been about a lot of experimenting.  We have tried several different foods, such as sweet potatoes, peas, bananas, peaches, and carrots.  So far she has not turned anything down, except for banana yogurt.  We discovered that she does not like it and makes a gagging face when she takes a bite.  Guess we will hold off on the yogurt for a little longer. She eats like a champ though.  I didn't know it was possible for a little baby to pack away a 1/4 cereal and a jar of baby food in one sitting.  I'm sure she would continue eating, but I stop her before she makes her little tummy sick.  And when all else fails, we resort to eating our foot.

She has been trying really hard to figure out the crawling thing.  We can now get into the classic rocking position on our hands and knees.  She hasn't tried to move once she gets up but if she needs to get to anything, she just army crawls.  We achieve this by throwing our hands out in front of us and pulling our selves forward while kicking our feet like a mad man.  Kind of reminds me of a fish out of water sometimes. It just amazes me at how fast she can move when she really wants something, I just have to make sure that it is something she can have.  She often wants to go after the dog toys and if you don't remove them from her sight, then she continues to go after them., no matter how far away they may be.  

She is also figuring out the whole sitting up straight thing.  We have been really good about keeping our self steady but we still fall over sometimes.

Since last month, we have not had anymore teeth come in, although I'm sure another one will be popping in here soon.
