Lucy is.....6 MONTHS OLD!

*****Check below for Lucy's 6 months stats updated!!! We went to the doctor this morning!

Happy 1/2 Birthday Lucy Josephine!


The past 6 months have gone by so fast! It is hard to believe that the first year of Lucy's life is already half over. I couldn't have imagined how much our lives would change having a baby, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. The simpliest smile, laugh, coo, or gaze into my eyes can brighten my entire day.

Lucy has grown from a 6 lbs. 2 oz. newborn to a 14 lbs. active 6 month old!

Look at the progression here from 1 month to 6 months!


Weight: 13 lbs. 14 oz. (15%) - She's our little petite baby!
Height: 25 1/2 in. (25%)
Head: 16 1/2 in. (50%)
(Lucy also got 2 shots and one vaccine in her mouth - ouch!)


-She is a pro at rolling over, both ways, either direction, and loves to play on her tummy
-She is getting REALLY good at sitting up! She can even pull herself up into the sitting postion from laying down
-She is starting to attempt to "scoot!" She puts her head down when on her tummy and pushes forward with her legs
-She is wearing size 3-6 month clothes and some 6 month and still fits in a size 2 diaper
-She is exclusively breastfeed (Woo-hoo for Mommy, too!)
-She is enjoying the introduction to baby food!
-She is still not sleeping through the night and on average nurses 2 or 3 times (I can't imagine what it will be like to sleep an entire night after not for 6 whole months!)
-She is a great napper!
-She loves to smile when Daddy comes home from work
-She will giggle like crazy if you blow raspberries on her belly
-She loves to be held...
