6 months old

I can't believe that she is already 6 months old. We went to the doctor on Friday and here are her stats: 15 lbs 9 oz (50%)
26 1/2 inches long (75%)
42 cm- head (25-50%)
This is such good news because since she was born until now she has been in the 10-25% on everything. She had a big growth spurt this last month. I think that she is trying to catch up to her little cousin Tatteham (my brother Clay's little boy) who I think is almost 20 lbs. and is a week younger than her. HA!

She is scooting all over now. I don't know if I am ready for her to move around yet. When you have only one child that is a fun thing. You can keep things off the ground so the baby doesn't put them in their mouth but with #3 it is a whole different story. The older the child gets the smaller their toys are and with a 6 & 4 year old you can only imagine. We are going to have to be very careful. It is so funny to watch her when she sees one of her sister or brother's toys. First of all she gets a look of excitment and awe on her face and then she gets this look of determination, like there is nothing in the world that will stop her from getting it. She is so cute!
Here are some pictures I took of her last week:



Some funny Olivia looks:


We love our little cutie!
