Happy 6 Months, Lasa!

Lasa Love is half a year old, can you believe that?! 

Here at 6 months, Lasa girl weighs in at 17 pounds of perfectly sweet, soft, snuggly goodness!

Over the last month, Lasa has become a big bib chewer, which is convenient for me because when it falls out of her mouth, it doesn't fall far and she can retrieve it herself. :}  She is squawking and babbling like nobody's business (especially when we are speaking or reading aloud) and she has starting making actual sounds; they are unintelligible sounds, but they are actual distinct sounds.  I swear she is trying to talk.  I bet she picks a favorite sound and makes a word out of it by 7 months.  In this, her sixth month, Lasa has been to her first art museum, 

sprouted two precious teeth, 

and met her first snow.  

As well, she has begun rolling over and over and over and over.  It's why we now have to actually strap her into her swing and bouncy seat.  Sometimes she sleeps completely through the night, but usually she still wakes close to 4 for a quick feeding and then slips back off to sleep after babbling in the crib awhile.  She can sit up now, though it's wise that someone/some pillow be near to soften her inevitable fall. She feels like a rock star when she is sitting up.

She has outgrown the baby bathtub, but we are putting off moving her to the actual tub, just because the baby bath is easier to manage right now.  She has endured two more colds since last month, has weaned off sensitive formula, and is steadily consuming 6 oz of milk per feeding as well as a jar of baby food a day.  She loves her Noah and he loves her, though he cries out for hot water to sanitize after she goos him with her drool, which she produces all day long.

Lasa's other interests include Josh's beard, my phone, mirrors,

everything on her Exersaucer, and lying in wide open floor spaces for the aforementioned rolling she is perfecting.  As luck would have it, Lasa got to see her momma at an appt. on this 6 month milestone.  And if she is lucky, will have a projected date for moving in with her momma after court this week.  We shall see! Hope so.  It is right and it is time for baby to begin sharing all these fun months and milestones with her momma if it can deemed safe.  

Happy 6 Months, Lasa!

We love you!
