Things we do.

Sweet baby, 6 months.

Month Six was pretty eventful. Not in the sense that a lot was going on around here, but yet there was always something to do. Six-month-olds actually do stuff. They squeal and laugh. They obsess over the family pets. They scream when they don't get their way. They eat a lot of new and different things-- in our case: cereal, sweet potatoes, bananas, pears, butternut squash and green peas, so far. They enjoy toys, especially noisy ones, like rattles and toys that sing in that tinny or electronic baby-toy way. They sit up on their own, roll over and position themselves to find what they are looking for. They can play independently for short periods of time. Having the TV on now seems wrong. I caught baby girl watching Oprah the other day when I turned my back. It's a little early for that, I think. But the point is she has been busy everyday. Just doing little, exciting new things.

There has been some reading.

Busy Doggies is a particularly interesting AND delicious book.

There has been a good amount of reaching and rolling.

Quite a bit of just looking cute.

Playing with the feet, especially sucking on the toes, has been a hit around here.

The thumb is also quite delicious, though slightly less delicious than toes or Busy Doggies.


Sweet potatoes are pretty yummy.


Until they are not yummy anymore. Then they are awful.

Petting the dog is the best.
Well, almost as good as grabbing the cat's tail. More on that later. xx
