Chloe at 6 months

She has grown. I thought I told her when I left that she was to stay the same size... Hmmm, so much for listening to me on that. Although during the week, I got to see a lot of her personality and discover what a great baby she is. She is very happy go lucky and will tend to entertain herself a great deal which is fantastic as you are able to go about doing some 'big people' things while she sucks on her toes, plays with her toys or just generally takes in the sights and sounds around her.

Big events that happened while I was there ~ we have the first tooth. While it isn't really that visible, it is definitely something that you are able to feel when she decides that she wants to use your finger for a teething ring. Along with breaking in the new tooth, some of the drooling has apparently stopped ~ according to mom.

The other big event ~ we have solid food. Yes, after her 6 month birthday and the photo event, we were able to see how well Chloe did with eating from a spoon. Things weren't a hit the first time, but after that we struck success... to the point where Chloe would grab the spoon and shove it in her mouth. Needless to say, this has been a big moment and now means that mom has a bit more freedom as dad can provide the meals...

With all this going on I think mom is now hoping for another first ~ a whole night's sleep, but we'll see how that one goes...
