6 months!

Esther is 6 months old! We can't believe it, it seems like we brought her home just a few weeks ago! Here is what she is up to:


Rolling and scooting around like crazy. She isn't crawling yet, but she is fairly mobile. She makes progress in all directions, though she tends to scoot backwards more than forwards!

Getting better at sitting up by herself. She still topples over a lot, but she is getting more stable every day.


Still sleeping 9-10 hours at night!

Eating cereal (and loving it!). We'll be starting her on some other foods this week.

Starting to teeth. You can tell her gums/teeth are bothering her. She wants to chew on everything and drools constantly. Hopefully we'll see some teeth soon!

She babbles and talks all the time. I'm working with her on "mama"!

She loves to play in her exersaucer.


She is super smiley and sweet. I know I'm biased, but I think she has a great personality. She is generally very happy and content. She has been a trooper through all the moving, living with friends, remodeling, etc. She's been happy to play on a blanket or sleep while Josh uses the power saws and drill!


We go for her 6 month check-up next week. So we'll have her updated stats then.

You're not biased, she is a DOLL. One of the best personalities I've been around.

Happy 6 months, Esther! We love you to pieces.
