Can you believe that six months have passed since Rose was born? She even woke me up at 4am on Monday morning to belatedly celebrate her birth (technically at 3:05am, although I would have been happy to wait until 6am to celebrate with her).
As always, we started her Sunday morning with a photo shoot. She loooves sitting up!
She's not so keen on "tummy time."
 |
| "You can make me lie on my tummy, but that doesn't mean I'll roll over!" |
She'll only tolerate being on her back if she can also suck on her toes.
She still loves her exersaucer, her jumper, and being held.

| (Look at those hazel eyes!) |
We continued our Sunday morning "family time" tradition by going for another hike. We were a bit skittish after our car window was broken two weekends ago, but we chose a park in the suburbs in the hopes that it would be pretty busy. Success!
Hyland Park Reserve has the most amazing outdoor gym for kids - we'll definitely be coming back as Rose gets older!
Even though most of the leaves were already down, it was still a glorious fall day!
We used the self-timer on my camera to try to get a family photo, but Rose kept wanting to look at me and not at the camera.
 |
| Can you see her smiling at me? ;) |
So we tried some goofy things like holding our hands out toward the camera so Rose would look that direction. Let's just say that was a massive fail - it didn't help Rose smile, Mike couldn't get his arm down fast enough, and his hand cast some crazy shadows! Maybe we can have a friend take a family photo some day...
Happy Half Birthday, Rose!!! We are so happy to have you in our family.
Right now Rose likes:
+ sitting up
+ goofy sounds and dances
+ solids of any sort (including pickles and sucking on hard pretzels, but especially smoothies)
+ splashing in the bathtub and swimming in pools
And she does not like:
- putting shirts over her head
- rolling over
- being made to wait when she's hungry
- avocado
- being sick and teething
