A Trip to the Park!

Grace is already 6 1/2 months old! She has cut her first teeth and is getting ready for more any day. At her last doctor's visit, she weighed in at 16.2 pounds and was 26 inches long. It's hard to believe that she's added 10 pounds and almost 10 inches in the short time she's been with us. She is sitting up and starting to pull up whenever she gets the chance. We think she just may pass by the crawling phase and go straight into walking. She has figured out she is mobile using lots of rolling and wiggling. She talks constantly and her favorite sound to make is a wet razzberry. It is most entertaining when she does it in her bed and we can listen over the monitor. She's eating solid food and has a fond affection for bananas and butternut squash, and a distinct distaste for green peas! The animals still fascinate her, but they are learning to keep a distance from her grasping little hands! We recently took a trip to our local park to try out the swings and slide. It was a big hit with Gracie!
