Ebkjc Autrey: 6 Months

Where has my little baby gone? Chloe is a WHOLE half of a year old now! She is certainly the cutest little bundle I have ever seen!

14 POUNDS!

Chloe has been sitting up on her own for several minutes at a time. She absolutely loves her toys as she rolls around on the floor! For the past couple weeks she will get on her knees and rock! I'm not ready for her to be that mobile. (Her 1st crawl was just after her 6 month mark, Nov. 29)

She absolutely loves sweet potato's! So far it is her favorite. She will eat peas, but not a fan. She eats pears and things they are good, but nothing so far has beat the deliciousness of sweet potato! She really enjoys her food being mixed with cereal! Makes it thicker and possibly easier to eat.

We call her many cute little nicknames! The most common is Chloe Janae-nae! There is also Cocoa Bean, Chlo Bug, and Cocoa Janae.

Her favorite things: Being tickled, being strapped to Daddy's chest, of course eating and playing. She also enjoys being entertained by her big brothers.

Over the past month she has found her toes! She tries her hardest to get them in her mouth, along with anything else she can find. The boys never played with their feet like she does.

She has made it known that she only likes Tommee Tippee bottles and binkies. (we had to go buy another bottle)
Her half birthday is her Grandma Autrey birthday, and vise versa!
Kelson got a hold of her 'special' cream and thought to put it all over his face... (gross!)
She wears 6-9 month clothes and often 12 month leggings!
Her hair is growing a lot and coming in golden blonde :)
When she sees the camera she smiles instantly, unless she's upset...
Her legs have become frog legs, or mermaid 'legs'. They don't just kick, but she gets moving like I would picture a mermaid would.
We have tried puffs, but she isn't too into them... yet? The boys loved them, and still do!
Her favorite person is still her daddy. She lights UP when he enters the room. She doesn't lose eye contact until he acknowledges her. Her excitement kills me!

She still doesn't sleep very long at night. A couple months ago she was going through a growth spurt and was hungry ALL the time. Shortly after that she got sick and woke up even more because she couldn't breath, she was always hungry she couldn't eat much from all the congestion. Instead of going back to her normal schedule once she got better, the schedule has remained the same. She wakes up at 8 and goes down at 10:30, after eating, and sleeps anywhere from thirty minutes to two hours. Her afternoon nap varies based on when she gets up from her morning. Depending on how long she sleeps in the afternoon, she may or may not have another afternoon nap... We are working on this! Mama really needs her sleep, especially when she works the next morning. The nice part about her waking up at night she never cries... She grunts and groans until you get her. Haha it's cute to hear.

A whole 6 months... Half of a year! I'm sure the next six months will fly just like the last six have.
