Adara at Six Months

Adara had her six month well check today, and she's at 27 1/3" (94%) and 17lb13oz (81%).  
(Or about 50% weight for length.)  

She's nice & healthy, and still as content as ever.  She's rolling over (still gets stuck on her arm going back to front), and getting close to sitting up on her own, but her main activity is grabbing anything in reach of those busy little hands.  She has two teeth and has started solids, though she isn't terribly interested.  I always try to feed her right after she's nursed (so she won't take in less milk) but maybe she's just too full then.  We're also "encouraging" her to fully give up the middle of the night feeding.  [Encouraging = moving her out to the bassinet in the living room and letting her be as noisy as she needs to getting back to sleep.  She doesn't seem to cry for too long, maybe 30 minutes?  I fell asleep.  And other things that never happened with the 1st baby! ;) ]

We tried to get her 6 month photo with Emily and Rosalie showing 6 fingers... needless to say, that was a little too much for a group shot of hyper children as we were trying to get out the door to church on Easter.  Oh well!  Here is Adara  at 6 months old with her sister and cousins.
