Dear Abby

You are now 17lbs and 28 inches long. Wow. You are 10lbs heavier and 10 inches longer than the day you were born and I don't know when that happened. Six months have come and gone, and today we start on number seven. Out of all of the months we've spent together so far, this last one has been my favourite by far. A large part of that has to do with how many "firsts" happened!

Your first time eating solids

And you weren't too impressed..

Second try with Uncle Aaron and you were a pro!

Your first time standing up in your crib alone which you now make a habit of doing..

Your first ChristmasAnd you loved all the attention

Your first word.. MAMA! A word that melts my heart every time I hear it..

And most recently..your first time crawling and you haven't stopped moving since..!

I have no idea what to expect these next couple months. I have been doing sign language with you, so maybe I'll get a sign back? I'm sure you will be doing some form of walking by the end of this month as well. You are already scooting over to the nearest obstacle in your path to climb and conquer it, followed by the biggest grin of satisfaction. Maybe another word? I thought for sure one of the four teeth visible in your gums would make it's entrance into the world last month, but maybe this one? Who knows. Time will tell. All I know is I can't wait to find out what's in store for us.

I love you more and more with each day that passes.

Yours forever,

Mama
