"S" is for...Six Months

Avalon is six months....what???? I don't know where the time has gone? I know every one says that, but I really don't know. I think number 3 makes time go faster somehow. I hate to admit it, but I am not sure of the last picture I took of Avalon and I have yet to write anything down on her calendar. How sad, sad, sad! Hopefully my time blogging will make up for that. So here is to our baby at six months.








Avalon has taken the "best baby" award in our family. She has turned into a great sleeper and a super happy baby most of the time. She is sitting all by herself and has done so for a couple of months now. However in the rolling over department she has not mastered that skill yet and I really don't think she will. You don't have to know how to rollover to be successful in life, right?She loves, loves, loves to watch her brother and sister and be right where all the action is. Anali is the only person that can make Avalon laugh on demand and it is so cute. Avalon is not stingy in the smile department. She smiles all the time, if she is not smiling she is drooling. She had her check-up and I was surprised to see that she was still on the charts in the chunk department. She weighed in at a whopping 19 pounds 4 ounces. that is 10 ounces heavier than Anali at six months and we thought she was chunky. Avalon has several nicknames right now and seems to answer to Chunky Monkey, Princess, Smiley, Miss Jade and Baby. She is a wonderful blessing in our lives!!!! Her personality shines through more each day and I am loving getting to know her!!

Oh, i totally hear you on the time thing. Seriously, where does it go? It makes me sad sometimes! She is so cute, though, and it's always fun to see where she's at developmentally since we're right in the same stage. But Sam rarely rolls over either and yes, I'm sure they'll still turn out all right. :) And he can't sit up on his own all the way yet. Close, but still not there. Watching a baby grow is so fun. Sad at times, but fun! She is adorable!

I can't believe she is six months time really does fly. I love her cute nicknames and her little round face. My babies have always had round faces so I perfer them. I'm glad she is being such a happy baby for you. Have a great day!

Hey Jo,
You said to leave a comment so here goes. WOW! Six months, Kaston turns six months tomorrow, 16th.
It's crazy how fast it goes.
Kaston is rolling all over, so consider her not rolling a "good" thing. LOL He has almost mastered the sitting up, but still needs a little protection from the boppy. I'd say a couple more weeks and he'll have it.
It's so fun to have kids so close in age. I just wish we lived closer.
Continue posting as I love to see how you and the family are doing and maybe one day I'll start a blog of my own. :)
