6 months old!

Willa Caroline is 6 months old today! We took her to the doctor and she is 26.5 inches and 18 pounds 1.5 ounces. Healthy girl! We can give her some water now and also add meat to her diet if we want to. I was so surprised when the doctor said we could throw our chicken dishes (her example was Chicken a la King) in the blender to puree and give it to her, even though it has salt and butter! She is just getting to big so quickly...She still has just two teeth on the bottom and is rocking on all fours. She is also getting really good at sitting up unsupported. Our little blessing!

Some favorites from this month so far

We have been so busy moving that I have had almost no time to post anything. But Willa doesn't stop amazing us every single day. She has her two front bottom teeth that poked through in North Carolina. They are so sharp but SO cute! She is also pushing up on all fours and rocking back and forth. She pushes herself in reverse a lot, but is ready to start putting in in drive any day now. She is "talking" a lot still, loves her Jenny Jump Up, and found two new best friends, Lakota and Travis, who were outside all summer missing their baby. She also has her own room and an actual crib finally. Mommy is still a little freaked by it, but Willa is doing so well sleeping there at night. She only gets up twice at night to eat, then falls right back to sleep. And the best part? Daddy is home to take half the night feedings! Speaking of food, this girl loves to eat. She has added bananas, peaches, plums, pears, blueberries, butternut squash, corn, carrots...loves it all!

Here are a few pictures from the few weeks we have been back in the Austin area. The blog will assume normal updates again once our house looks like a home and not a storage unit anymore...
