My baby is 1/2 a year old.  I can’t believe how fast time goes, soon she’ll be 5, then 10, 20…ahhh!  She’s been the best gift I’ve ever been given.  Almost every night as i lay her down I can’t thank God enough for allowing me to have her in my life.  I LOVE being a Mom to her.  I wanted to write to share some of the new and funny things she is doing lately.

*  She rolls around everywhere, she loves to be on her belly and can’t move forward very well she goes in circles or scoots backwards

*  She squeels in delight and often makes a low pitched growling noise.  It’s really funny.  She’s been saying “ba,ba,ba” lately.

* Her newest thing is a faker smile.  She will look up at you, scrunch up her nose and give you a closed mouth smile like that.  I’m not sure where it came from but it cracks us up every time.

*  She’s a big veggie fan so far when it comes to solids.  I gave her banana for a week and all I got was scrunched up faces of disgust and then I gave her some sweet potato and it was an open mouth and I couldn’t shove it in fast enough.  Peaches, scrunched up gross face, green peas, open mouth, gobble down.

*  She’s a kicker, she pretty much always kicks her socks off and if you look at her from afar, you can always see her little chunker legs going, going, going.  Changing her diaper is interesting :)

*  She’s an easy baby, contented and patient.  We take her everywhere cause she’s so easy.

*  She studies people.  Some babies I know are instant smiles when you look at them, not Mia.  If a stranger is talking to her/looking at her, she studies them with wide eyes and silence.  Once and awhile a random stranger will get a smile out of her.  It’s pretty cute.

Yes, we are pretty much head over heals for this little girl.
