6 months

Today, my sweet little Neva is 6 months old! Where in the world has that time gone?

She is doing all kinds of new things!!! She is rolling all over the place..tummy to back, back to tummy, repeat, repeat, repeat! Diaper changing is a whole new ball game with these new skills! She also has 2 teeth on the bottom, which she loves to practice using while nursing...ouch! And we'll be starting her on "solid" foods tomorrow! Our first food will be rice cereal, which is all made and ready to go! I know it's not necessary, but it is a very low allergy food so that's what we'll be starting with!

This whole food thing is a little bitter-sweet to me. So far, she's gotten all of her 15 (!!) pounds from me, in one way or another. The first half in utero and the second half from my milk. So I have been able to take full credit for those amazing cheeks. Starting tomorrow, that will not be the case. Which is totally fine, it's just a little strange to me!

We also had our first experience with medication for babies...what a treat that is!! And we only were doing eye drops for possible conjunctivitis!! Do not look forward to any more of that!! :)

Neva also has a new friend at daycare who is just one week younger than her. I met her and her mom at the breast feeding chat group at the hospital. We quickly learned that they would be in the same daycare setting...too fun! It is so cute to watch these 2 little girls together...adorable! They have been holding hands when I have gotten there at the end of the day. May or may not have been intentional, but adorable none-the-less!

Continue to be so grateful for such an amazing and healthy baby!!! And having the best husband a gal could hope for. I am truly, truly lucky!!!!
