Half Year Birthday!

Miss Evelyn is 6 months old! She is growing so fast! She is 15.9 lbs (50%) and 26.75 inches long (75%). So, looks like we have a tall little girl right now! I see basketball in her future!

In our SMU gear!
I need to stay there until she goes to college
so she can go for free!
So, she only wears SMU college gear!

Here is our 6 month update:

• For lunch and dinner my mom or Lala feed me green beans, peas, sweet potatoes, carrots, or squash mixed with oatmeal. A few times lately my dad has fed me and we make a BIG mess together! 
• For breakfast my mom gave me bananas and oatmeal this weekend and I LOVED IT! This month I get to have fruit for breakfast! 
• I enjoyed my first couple of "mum-mum" cookies and I like them, but I don't understand why my  mom tries to make me hold the cookie. I open my mouth and she won't hold it for me!
• My mom isn't making my milk anymore, but she has so much stored up in the freezer my bottles are 1/2 formula and 1/2 milk. I haven't had any trouble transitioning to formula, in fact I'd just rather have food from a spoon. I like to eat a whole bowl full and then 4 oz of milk.
• I don't blow raspberries while I'm eating anymore, however, when I get full, that's how I tell you I'm done!
• I officially have more eyebrows than hair on my head and everyone says I look like my mommy and my papa (my mom's dad).
• I'm almost sitting up on my own. I sit up for a minute and then I fall over and it makes me mad. I can't figure out how to sit back up yet. 
• I'm easily distracted by my dogs and I like to pet them. They give me lots of kisses too!
• I love watching TV. Mom and Dad used to be able to stop me but now I scoot so I can see the TV or turn around in my bouncer! They can't stop me, but they do keep turning off the TV. 

I'm doing ok with not nursing anymore, last week I felt really guilty about it, but with us moving and me trying to get everything packed it has taken my mind off of the guilt. Many doubted I would make it past the 3 weeks Evelyn was in the hospital. I doubted I would make it until August. At the end of August I pushed through and said I would make it until she turned 6 months. Well I did it and I'm pretty proud to say I'm a working mom and was able to push this far!
