swinging baby

Look at this TALL/LONG baby! I am anxious to see her height/weight when we go for her six month appointment this month. These 6-9 month PJs hardly fit her because she is so long! She has recently started doing so many things. She has been rolling over for a long time, but she has recently figured out that she can roll to get places. So now she is rolling over and over to get to a toy. I will put her one way and when I turn around she has turned a completely different way. I know it won't be long before she is truly mobile! Yikes! She is sitting up for longer periods of time. If she is playing with a toy, she will actually sit for a minute or two before toppling over. She has gotten very deliberate with her play. She manipulates things with both hands and enjoys examining toys. She also loves to wave a toy up and down with her arm. A new source of fun is banging on a table and she will imitate someone else doing this. She loves books (especially bedtime stories from Daddy) and loves to be sung to. She is making all sorts of sounds. Her latest is grunting and a new "monster" noise that is just hilarious. She is quite the little problem solver. She saw her paci at her feet in her stroller and she was trying to use her feet to move it near her hands where she could reach it. Check, check, check on that developmental checklist :) She has also recently started playing coy. She will turn her head to the side and smile. It is sooo funny! We are just loving every single minute with our little girl. She got a new toy today, that I am pretty sure she is pretty fond of......

She looks so big, I just can't stand it! Can you tell she has just a little bit of personality???? :)
