Half A Year Old

Little miss Olive Jane is six months old today- half a year has passed since the day of her birth! She is learning so many new things everyday and is growing up so fast. She now has her two bottom teeth and worked hard to get them. She can almost sit up on her own. She gets up on her hands and knees and mostly moves backwards, but every once in awhile she pops herself forward. So far, she's not a big fan of jarred baby food, but she loves to taste anything that we're eating. When she's really thinking about something she moves her hands in a gypsy-like fashion or like a hula dancer. My mom says that I did that when I was a baby. She has a new favorite toy that makes her laugh and squeal- it's a little monkey that squeaks. She has started to become wary of new people and always wants to be near her Mommy. I don't mind since I know how truly fast she will grow up and not want to be held all the time. She is a blessing and a joy to be with. We are so thankful for her sweet little life.
