G is for...Growing Girl

Hey guys! Sorry it has taken me so long to post again! Addi had her 6 mo check up a couple of weeks ago. She weighed in at 15 lbs 2 oz (25 percent) and was 25.5 inches long (50 percent). She has started crawling, but hasn't yet figured out how to pull up on things. We have started trying to feed her baby food, which has been a challenge each and every time! I can't figure out if she doesn't like it, or if she is just not ready for it. She is looking more and more like her Daddy everyday. Rich had the nerve to joke with me that she had "her Momma's thigh's", like this was supposed to make me feel better about my contribution to the genetic-pool! Great...she is going to be a fair-skinned, red-head with hail-damaged "thunder-thighs" (my gymnastics coaches "affectionately" gave me this nickname in junior high. Perfect for a young girls self-confidence :). Hopefully she will forgive me someday :)

I left Addi on the floor in her bedroom to grab the phone, and came back to find her wedged underneath the changing table. And there is Gizmo, hoping she will spit up at any moment. Why are dogs so disgusting???

Our first time in the high-chair!
Okay, this bathtub is SO much fun. It is the perfect size, has a drain in the bottom, and quacks when you squeeze its beak!! Love it!!
And this is our first trip to the pool. She didn't get to spend much time in the water, because Mom has not yet had the courage to dawn the bikini. Plus, I think I saw a sign that said "please keep hail-damage to a minimum". Oh well, guess I'm out :)
But Addi had a good time anyway. She got to sit on the steps and splash around. We are working on getting Mom back into a bathing suit!!

I can't believe she is old enough to be crawling. Kaison just perfected that not too long ago. She is beautiful!!
