Can you believe that Vivi is 6 months old!? I know, neither can I! It seems like a few months ago I was pregnant and anticipating her arrival. This has been such a fun time for us. Vivi is learning more about the world around her and meeting new milestones every day.
Trey and I threw her a little family only half birthday party tonight. She wore her sweet dress and a birthday girl tiara and had pears and mangos for dinner. We even sang her “Happy Birthday”! I took her to Target and let her pick out a half birthday present, she chose a baby doll! Every time she sees the baby she starts to smile, and then chews on it! Everything these days is a teething toy!
Here are some things that Vivi is doing at 6 months old. She is such a wonderful, sweet, loving baby! We are soooo lucky!
- Is 27 inches and 15 pounds and 6 ounces
- Has 2 teeth!
- Likes to watch Wonder Pets! and LOVES the theme song. She starts to smile every time she hears it.
- Goes to bed at 9ish and wakes up at 8ish.
- Is getting better at putting herself to sleep. She is starting to love her crib.
- Takes 3 naps a day: one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and a catnap in the evening.
- LOVES food! Right now she is eating oatmeal and rice cereals, peas, carrots, green beans, sweet potatoes, bananas, apples, avocados, pears, and peaches.
- Loves her blankie.
- Has great taste in music. She will kick her little feet to the beat. Don't know where she gets that from.

- Can stand up when holding onto something.
- Loves to be outside.
- Wears 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diaper.
- Loves when Daddy sings one of his many made up songs.
