End of January update

You know, I've been doing a whole lot of blog reading, but not a lot of writing.  I attribute it often to the excuse that now that I'm a stay at home mom, my life is pretty boring.  But actually, I really enjoy reading about ordinary people's ordinary lives.  And really...my life is probably more interesting now than when we were childless, let's just be honest here :). Before children, we just were able to watch more Netflix and sleep a couple more hours.  Big whoop.  Now, we get to discover the joys of life all over again with this tiny person.  WELL worth the lack of sleep.  Besides, now that she is going to bed at a decent hour (anywhere between 7-10pm) and sleeping THROUGH THE NIGHT (!!!!!!!) we still can watch our shows and movies, just the two of us.  I am sure she will be going through another phase soon enough, and I won't be able to say that anymore....but it's not all that bad. During the day, I do have to make sure I entertain her....

Six months :)

I keep dropping the ball on baby updates.  I know I'm the only one interested (haha) but life is going by so very fast, I NEED to write it all down. Maddie had her 6 month well baby visit today.  She is doing better, according to her pediatrician, on weight; everything else was always a non concern for him. This month's stats: Height:  26 inches (50th percentile) Weight:  14 pounds and 2.5 ounces (13th percentile--and weight to length is 6th percentile) Head circumference:  16.5 inches She has always been in the lower percentile for weight to length since birth.  We expected that since I am tiny myself.  But I anticipate she will be much taller than me when she grows older. She can now roll back and forth from back to tummy, and I have to make sure I always watch her now since she's very fond of rolling pretty fast across any surface I put her on!  Not sitting up quite by herself yet, but she's getting it and can stop herself from toppli...
