6 Month old Kayla

Remember when I was 6 months pregnant? Makayla was about a foot long and weighed 2 pounds inside my big belly.
 Well guess who's 6 months old, weighs a lot more that 2 pounds, and is over two feet now?  Yup! Our little Princess is 6 months old!!!

Makayla has mastered a lot of new skills in the last month. The biggest is that she is close to crawling! She gets up on all fours and rocks back and forth. I think I'm in big trouble when she starts crawling.
 Another skill Makayla has learned (well it's not really a skill, but it is cute) she eats paper. Just like a good mom, I let her.
 Mastering new facial expressions is at the top of Kayla's to do list for the month. This is her latest face. Pretty cute!
 It may or may not have been provoked by pinching her nose.
Her smile is still the cutest.
 Kayla can almost sit up by herself. Sometimes sitting up by yourself requires a lot of work, so Kayla would prefer to do tummy time. Besides, it is a whole lot more fun to just get on your tummy and roll around.
 We've also started Makayla on baby food. This was her first time trying carrots.
 Yum!!
 I think this facial expression sums up exactly how much she loved carrots.
 Or this one. Not getting food all over her face and hands is not a skill Kayla has mastered yet.

This last weekend we headed up to the cabin. One of the horses just had a baby colt.

 What a cute family

Kind of like this cute family!
 Anyone want to guess what movie this is from?
Yup! That's our little Simba and Rafiki!
 And what's more fun than sitting on Grandpa?
 I don't know if Craig or the kids were having more fun in this picture.
 After a hard day of playing, our little Stinky Bugs was worn out. Makayla was pretty tired, too. :)

Kayla is just growing up too fast, but it is so fun to see her learning new things and discovering her world. I really can't believe that she is already 6 months old.

  2. Time has gone by fast, 6 months already? What a little sweetie! I am sad you moved from your house. You loved your home. I am sorry, never an easy day. I hope that you love living back up north now and that it will be worth it.

  4. What a cutie :) I like how she is trying to grab the horse. That is great your house sold so fast. I guess the move was meant to be.
