6 Months Old!

My little girl is getting so big! It's amazing to think of how much she's changed and learned since she was born. The doctor was very pleased with her growth and development. Lily's 27" long and weighs 16 lbs 3 oz. She had a couple shots at her check up but it seemed to go better than last time.
Lily has mastered rolling both ways and likes to roll herself across the room. She also can sit on her own. She LOVES her jumperoo and bounces like crazy when she's in it. She still "talks" a lot and is starting to mimic sounds that we make. My favorite is when I clap and say "yeah!" she says "yeah" back. (At least that's what it sounds like to me.) She makes da-da and ma-ma sounds but I don't consider any of them an official word yet.
She's still eating breast milk and rice cereal and we just started introducing fruits and veggies. So far she's had apples and zucchini and doesn't seem thrilled about either. But she still eats it, so that's good. I tried making my own baby food and it was really easy.

Kiawah Island Part 1

We are on our first family vacation! We are in Kiawah Island, SC with Matt's family and having a great time. I'll write more when we get back home. For now I'll just send a sneak peak of pictures we have so far. Lily did FANTASTIC on the flight here and she's been her usual happy self since we've been here. (I got all stressed out over nothing.) She is such an amazing baby!

Grandpa & Nana have been a HUGE help with Lily. It makes it more relaxing for Mommy and Daddy when the grandparents can help out.
