6 Month Check-Up

Madilyn recently turned 6 months old! This past Monday, after returning home from our holiday vacation, we took her into the doctor for the routine check-up and SHOTS!! The nurse was very impressed with all of Madi's smiles, calling her "the baby of the day" (and no, we weren't there at 9am. Our appointment wasn't until the end of the day)! Madi weighed in at a whopping 14 lbs 10 oz and measured 26 in. tall.
This past month Madi has reached several fun milestones, one which you've probably already noticed which is that of sitting up! This new skill was mastered while in California and what a joy it is to have her now sitting up. I've loved being able to leave her with a pile of toys and have her just sit and play!



Madilyn has also decided to take after her mother with her love for water! Yes, I now have to share my water bottle! Every time I go to take a drink, she opens her mouth real wide, letting me know that I need to share!

Reina does the same thing with my exact same water bottle. It's the perfect height for her, she doesn't even have to move to take a drink.
