6 months!!

Kennedy is 6 months old today! I cannot believe how time flies, it is just crazy!

She is growing so much, and is learning new things every day. She started solids a couple of weeks ago and is not eating oatmeal, sweet potatoes and squash. She hates the oatmeal, tolerates the sweet potatoes and seems to like the squash so far. Next week I think we'll try pears to see if she likes em.

She "talks" up a storm now, blows raspberries like crazy, and smiles whenever someone she knows walks in the room. This little one also still LOVES tv. If the tv is on a room that she is in she'll crane herself around until she can see it. She preferes real people shows vs. cartoons still, she would just much rather watch Matt Lauer in the morning instead of Spongebob. For now, I am happy about this, but I know it won't last very long. Soon she'll be wanting the cartoons.

She has started to fight her naps like crazy. She used to fall asleep so easily for naps, but now she lets herself get so tired that she then cries and fights you while you try and put her down, once she is out though she is usualy out for a good 45 minutes, to sometimes 2 hours.

Her night sleep seems to have regressed. We went from one wake up a night, to sometimes sleeping through the night to now waking up two times a night again. Thankfully she'll eat and go right back down without a fight, so at least I know she is up because she is hungry and not just because she wants to play. We got a mobile for her crib not too long ago (she just wasn't into anything like that before) and we woke up one night at 2am with her "talking" away, well we went in and she was just chatting it up with her mobile. Needless to say, it now comes off at night, or when it is not in use.

Kennedy has also just recently taken a liking to Cody.  She will stop whatever she's doing and watch him if he walks by, and if he is running through the house she'll start squealing.  It is adorable.  She also tries to reach out and grab him, so we are slowly working on them getting used to each other (meaning keeping Cody from nibbling on little fingers and from pawing at her, like he does to us.)  It is cute though!

I still cannot believe that 6 months has gone by!
