Kasey 6 months

Kasey had her 6 month doctor appointment today. Everything looks great. She weighed 18 lb 3 oz (87% - down from 91%). She is 27 inches tall (88% - up from 83%). Head circumference 17.125 (79% - up from 69%).

Kasey is doing well. She definitely has fussy times and has some difficulty going to sleep depending on where she is and how tired she is.

She's wearing 6/9 month clothes, but they are starting to get small. She has a couple 12 month things that fit just fine. She's wearing size 3 diapers. Her hair is getting longer so she can wear a bow or headband. Of course she can now take off the headbands.

She's sitting up quite well. We still sit close in case she falls over, but she's doing really well.

Kasey also grabs at everything. She'll lean and reach to get just about anything.
She rolls from her back to front, but not front to back yet. She also likes standing sometimes more than sitting.

She's still eating only breastmilk. She'll start solids very soon. She will eat about 6-10oz during the day while I'm at work, and she'll eat with me early morning and multiple times in the evening. I'm still pumping at work twice a day.

Sleeping is interesting. She goes to bed between 9 and 9:30 almost every night. She had been pretty consistent waking up after about 7 hours of sleep to eat and then going right back to sleep. Of course this past week she woke up a couple times and thought it could be fun to stay awake. Greg and I weren't so thrilled. One night Landon woke up multiple times and Kasey wante to stay awake after eating. I'm sure we'll get it all worked out. I was reading back and Landon's monthly updates and he did the same thing at six months wanting to stay awake. He ended up in our bed when he did that.
