Buon Giorno!!!: 6 Months....OH, MY!!!!

Seriously??? Six months already? I make it a point to stop and look at Kyndall's sweet little face each and every day....to soak it all in. Otherwise, I blink and she's a month older! She continues to be the sweetest and most happy baby....so fun. Here's the latest and greatest:

We've started solid foods, and so far she likes everything. She's really shown an interest in eating and has diligently been watching Rome and I eat for awhile now. So she was a natural when we introduced the solids. It's like she's been taking mental notes....lol. Opened her mouth for bites from day 1...so cute. I'm making her food at home with all fresh and/or frozen organic veggies and fruits. (It's incredibly easy and surprisingly cheaper.) So far we've had: rice cereal, oatmeal cereal, green beans, and peas. Carrots are next!
Takes 6 oz of formula at each feeding.
She rolls from tummy to back, but really shows no interest in rolling from back to tummy and doesn't do it very often. She rolls to her side and stays there. But she'll scoot around in circles and uses her heals to push herself forward....geez!
While on her tummy, she crosses her little ankles to get up on her knees. She hasn't figured out this could possibly take her places, so she doesn't stay in that position long.
She sits independently while leaning forward on her hands...not a huge fan of this either.
She LOVES to stand, and prefers this to anything.
Grabs objects with both hands and transfers them from hand to hand.
Knows strangers from familiar faces, and will absolutely let you know if she's not cool with a new face...lol.
She sleeps 10-12 hours every night. She weaned herself off of her 2am feeding....sleeps straight through now.
She's starting to notice the dogs, and she tries to pet them if they're within reach. (Yep, we're already talking about "soft" touch...lol.)
She continues to love her books. She'll hold the cover with one hand and pat the pages with the other.
Babbles, squeals, and vocalizes all day long.
