Lily is 6 months

Hard to believe that my baby girl is 6 months already. A little about Lily:
Lily really suits her name. She is such a sweet and happy little girl. Her smile is very contagious. She always wakes up so happy in the mornings. It's one of my favorite times with her. Lily loves to see Ava. When you ask her where Ava is, she will look for her now. She is a very content baby. She babbles a lot now - mostly da da da da. (Ma ma will come soon, I hope!) She has two teeth and she's about to have four. She rolls a lot. Hasn't mastered sitting up on her own yet, but everyday she sits up longer and longer. She giggles a lot. Started eating a lot of baby food recently. Loves most everything I've fed her except for squash. She will stare at her daddy a lot and always gives him a big smile. Lily loves her "Sophie" - it's her giraffe teething toy, although she loves Ava's BF Sophie, too. :)
I can already see the differences in Lily and Ava. Ava was almost crawling and pulling up on furniture at this age. Lily isn't even quite sitting up on her own yet. She doesn't seem too active, which I'm thankful for this time around :).
We love you, sweet Lily!

Here's her stats: 13lbs. 11oz. (10 percentile) and 26 in. long. (61 percentile).


Here's my little princess:

Lily's first play date with Heidi, our neighbor and friend. Heidi is 3 hours younger than Lily. Yes, that's right, 3 hours a part. If you read my birth story, then you will remember that me and my neighbor went into labor on the same day and delivered at the same hospital. Pretty crazy how the Lord works. They seemed to enjoy their time together and Ava seemed to enjoy it a lot too. As you can see, Ava's pretending to be a baby with a rattle in her mouth. :)
