Half Birthday

6 months, wow! Hard to believe Olivia's been here that long.



She had her 6 month check-up Friday. 12 pounds, 4 ounces and 25 inches long. She was in the 25% for height and less than 3% for weight. Not sure if that's actual or adjusted age, though. She's small even for her adjusted age, but healthy! :) She got one shot and the doctor recommended waiting 5 more weeks before starting solids (so she will be 6 months adjusted). I'm glad, it gives me more time to make food!

Waiting for her shot- she's thrilled (and sleepy).



I think she may be getting a tooth. At least I hope that's the problem. She's been really clingy lately. We can keep her calm and make her smile and laugh, as long as one of us is holding her. Unfortunately, she's not sleeping well again. She's waking 5-7 times a night, sometimes just crying out in her sleep, but loud enough to wake herself up. Not sure what's going on, but Michael and I are exhausted. It's not so bad on the weekends, but today was rough! Her doctor said he would expect a 12 pound baby to wake 1-2 times a night for a feeding, but he's not sure about the rest. I checked out some books, so we'll see if that helps!

She likes having her clothes off, too:





And just because they turned out so cute, a few of my favorites from her session with Rebecca Marr Photography:













Have a good day! Olivia, Avry and I are off to the library for their baby class!
