Ella {6 Months}

It has been a whole six months with this sweet girl! She has grown so much over that short period of time, I just want time to slow down so I can keep my little girl little, but it seems to be going by so fast! Ella has had a few milestones this month; including, learning how to sit up all by herself, and scooting around like crazy! She is now officially mobile. It is nice she can move around and not be frustrated because she can't reach a toy or blanket, but now she doesn't stay in one place! She seriously is so speedy now, inching her way across the room - she even can plank, so crawling must not be too far behind. It is weird to think I have two mobile kids now. I got thinking the other day than in a matter of months I could have two walkers! I am not ready for that, but thankfully I don't have to worry about that now!

Ella has grown like a weed since she was born. She is now almost 18 pounds and 27 inches long! A total growth of 10 pounds and 8 inches since she was born! She constantly stays in the 70-80th percentile for both height and weight! I love my chunky girl!

The more I think about it the crazier it seems that she has gotten so big and already a half a year old! Six months from today will be her birthday, and with how fast the first six months went by, I am sure the next will just fly by before I know it! I haven't started Ella on any baby food yet, but will be within the next few days! She has had a taste of yogurt and sucked on an apple and even tried some puffs, but as for real baby food - nothing yet! I don't know if I am holding back from giving her baby food quite yet, because it means she is growing up and I just want her to stay my baby!
