What happened to my little baby?

People told me to take it all in, that babies don’t stay little for long.  Boy, were they right!  I can’t believe how fast she went from this:

to this:

 

Abigail is growing up so fast!  The past six months are a blur in my mind, but a WONDERFUL blur. Being a mother is incredible.  She melts my heart every day.   Here are some of her recent developments….

She is eating solids! 

Not the best picture, but she wore her first ponytail! (Trust me, it is there :)

She is getting good at sitting up. So good that she highly enjoys: sitting on the floor, playing in her activity center, and swinging.  And she is so close to crawling! 

  One of her biggest accomplishments is sleeping without being swaddled.  I would have been shocked if someone told be a couple month ago that she would be sleeping without being tightly swaddled by six months.  This girl LOVED being swaddled tightly.  So much that she had a hard time sleeping any other way. 

Last but not least, she gained an Uncle!  Meet Uncle J!  He is the one on the left (I had been waiting on a wedding picture to post instead but I’m too impatient with the photographer.  Plus I thought I’d better finish this blog post before the baby starts walking :)

Uncle J is fabulous, a great addition to our family.  More pictures of that event to come soon :)
