Daphne - 6 months old!

Okay, so she's more than that, but I'm trying my best to keep up! She is growing like crazy and keeping everybody happy. She is a social butterfly that will allow anyone to hold her. When we are at the pool, I barely am in charge of her, as she is continually whisked away by some person or another. The other day, one mom came back, empty handed, and pointed to another mom and asked Matthew if we knew her (she was currently holding Daphne). We assured her that she was, indeed, a friend! Everybody wants their turn for a snuggle!


Daphne's working on sitting up. She loves the exersaucer and is just getting used to the jumpy thing (that hangs in the doorway). She hasn't figured out how to get it to really bounce, yet, but I have no doubt that she will. She loves taking baths - she seems to kind of lunge toward the tub when she sees it. I have to be ready with the towel because now she kicks her legs so much that about half the water splashes out! It's fun to watch her having so much fun!

She is such a happy baby that if she cries, I run to see what is wrong, or what it is that needs fixing. Most people have commented on how they have never seen her cry or really be upset. Even the nurse at our 6 month appt. was skittering about trying to make Daphne happy after her shots. I've never had any of the nurses try to comfort my babies like that before!
Daphne weighed in at 17 lbs. 10 oz (80th %tile)at this doctor appt., at is 27.5 inches long (95th %tile). We are so, so blessed with her!!!
Here are a few pictures of Daph in the bath!
She found herself in the mirror!
