6-7 months

  • These first 6 months have completely changed our lives. The whole world revolves around our little girl. If she is happy, then I am happy!
  • We are at a very good place now. I am starting to wean her from breastfeeding and start her on baby food.
  • Growth spurt…Holy Cow! Eating all the time and not sleeping through the night.
  • January 8th- eating in the high chair
  • January 8th – first crawl! …forward movement.
  • January 9th- goes from a laying position to a sitting position.
  • Starting on rice cereal…and will not eat it!
  • Smacks with her lips and tongue.
  • January 14th- crawls the length of the couch! REALLY!!!
  • Happy as a clam!
  • She can get out of the Bumbo all by herself…she is very determined!
  • January 16th- She crawls without encouragement…all by herself!
  • January 16th- Pulled up on her own in her crib (first time)!
  • January 27th- She is pulling up consistently
  • January 27th- We were trying to get Rachel to say Daddy and she started saying “da da da da” over and over again. We got it on video, and Aaron was so happy!
  • January 27th- Rachel saw her first live musical- Wizard of Oz- O’Connor HS. I brought the bumbo and some toys and she sat in the aisle and although she got a bit restless, she was good the whole time.
  • Her favorite food is Gerber squash!
  • January 28th- Her first tooth emerged (bottom)!
  • January 28th- She was dedicated in church
  • Still “bubbles” her tongue all the time
  • Rubs her eyes when she’s sleepy, but never likes to go to bed.
  • She laughs at Sebastian all the time.
  • Her favorite things are: straps, cords, Sebastian’s ball, bulb syringe, remote, baby videos, and mirrors.
  • January 30th- Sarah Epperson’s first step at our house
  • Rachel can climb out of the bouncer even when buckled in!
