“solid” solids

Decided to break up some yogurt melts and let Julia try some “solid” food…

Mobility is so close I can taste it

So Julia is a very active lil’ happy girl… she’s somewhat a maniac, but in a good way. She’s rolling all over the floor – front to back, back to front – She’s sitting without any support and from that position can lay back and get up or get on to her belly – From her belly, she’s getting up on her hands and knees. She hasn’t figured out how to move her hands forward, so she does lots of face plants, poor thing. Anyways, all of this activity has been very fun since loves it… similing, laughing, talking… it’s awesome.

Also because I feel bad that I’m always updating about Julia… Paul is doing awesome too. He’s doing great in school, great in baseball… just great all around.

Julia loves her Baby Genius

6 Month Check-Up

Julia is doing “terrific” according to her doctor. Here are her “vitals”:
Height: 26 inches
Weight: 17 pound, 13 ounces
Weight for Height Percentile: 87%

She’s pretty ahead on the developmental scale in terms of abilities… including already getting up on to all fours! I am expecting the forward motion in conjunction with that (crawling) is only weeks away.  (sigh!)
