Happy 6 Month Birthday!!
Camryn got her ears pierced for her birthday!
Camryn turned 6 months old on February 16th! I can't believe how fast time has gone by and how big she has gotten! She had her 6 month check-up with the doctor and everything is looking good. She's still just short and a little chubby :)
Weight = 17 lbs 2 oz (72%)
Height = 25.25 in (32%)
Head = 16.7 in (52 %)
Camryn has definitely found her personality! And the best way to describe it is that she thinks she's a princess! She is super girly, high-maintenance, happy, and fun (as long as she's being treated like a princess). She is SO much fun and we feel super blessed to have her in our family :)
Here are some things about Camryn at 6 months:
-She rolls all over the place and is starting to scoot... but mostly backwards
-She has just recently gotten up on her knees when she's on her belly
-She talks... A LOT... and by talking, it usually means screaming. She loves the sound of her own voice and will talk/yell for hours. And she mostly says "da-da", which doesn't make her dad happy at all ;)
-She loves to spit/razz whenever she remembers that she can do it (usually when she's mad)
-She hates to eat!! It's a battle everyday to get her to drink bottles and even worse to get her to eat baby food. We're slowly getting better, but she's VERY picky about what she'll eat. If I feed her anything green, she throws up. She likes carrots, sweet potatoes, and bananas. So we're working on finding more foods that she'll eat.
-She also doesn't like to sleep much either! She takes 2 or 3 naps a day, but they're usually only 30 min to an hour long. She is high-maintenance and thinks she needs to be held the whole time too. I'm sure that I spoil her too much. It's very rare that she'll fall asleep on her own in the crib. She has to be all wrapped up to fall asleep in her crib and to sleep at night. She also has a hard time with waking up 2 to 10 times within the first hour or two of going to sleep at night. It gets frustrating!
-She is sitting up really well on her own... she still falls over sometimes, but she's doing good
-She LOVES the car. She is usually silent in the car and pretty much always has a nap, especially when we go on road trips. She's the perfect baby for all these trips we take home to Utah on the weekends!
-She thinks it's her job to grab EVERYTHING within sight! She "helps" hold anything you're holding and she especially loves to grab my hair! She goes out of her way to grab my hair and pull as hard as she can. It's great.
-She cries whenever I walk out of the room. Everytime I try to get something done, walking in and out of the room a few times, it turns into a massive meltdown. Seriously, you'd think she was being stabbed! She even does it while Mitch is holding her sometimes!
-She has a serious temper! Sometimes she will get SO mad at a toy she is playing with! She will throw it around, slam it on other toys, scream at it, etc. I had a horrible temper when I was little and threw tantrums. I think that's on the way.... when she is mad, she arches her back, stiffens her whole body, screams, turns red, and slams her hands down over and over. Yikes!!
-She loves stuffed animals. They're her favorite :)
-She has recently started watching cartoons.
-And we still can't tell what color her eyes are going to be! They are kind of gray... with a little blue and some flecks of brown? So who knows. And she is also finally growing back all her hair that fell out! Thank goodness :)
She LOVES to grab the phone....
The many faces of Camryn :)
Can you tell that we're exctied for summer to get here so we can use the pool? Camryn's got all her gear ready!
She makes rolls look good when she's rockin her bikini!
