6 Months

Evie turned 6 month old yesterday, April 2 and I was able to get home from a trip to New York in time to spend a few hours playing with her. As with each passng month, she continues to grow and change almost by the hour.

- She is now sitting on her own (when put into a seated position). She started this on Saturday, March 29 and was able to sit for about 30 seconds. When I got home on Tuesday, April 1, she was able to sit on her own for minutes at a time.

- She can roll over from front to back and back to front

- She continues to talk all the time

- She does a great job picking up and holding things and can take her pacifier in and out of her mouth

- This last month she added a third state to those visited so she has now been to: South Carolina, Georgia, and North Carolina

- She loves her brother and wants to have eyes on him as much as possible

It looks like Evie is telling Drake a secret

Now that we have reached the 6 month benchmark, we are about to embark on the solid food adventure. We are opting out of cereal this go around and the world of fruits and vegetables is about to open wide for Evie.
