Mood:  rushed

This entry is a bunch of updates that most people might not know about our daughter Willow as of 6 months of age:

height: 26 3/4 inches     weight: 16 lbs 4 oz

She had her first dentist visit when she was 10 days old since she already had a real tooth coming out. We named that one rufus the toofus. Her second one broke through on Christmas day. Its name is ruthy the tuthy. She is currently teething and in a very much mommy only mode.

We gave her her first baby food on her 6 month bday (Jan 23) of apples. She ate a little bit the first day but has decided that they are not for her. She loves her bananas though. Next week we are gonna try pears. And if Aunt Judy happnes to see this...she used the spoon that you gave her for her first feeding, and we have some cute/messy pics of it too!! Thanx again!

"mama" is all that you'll hear from Willow if your aching for words that are regularly said. She started saying a couple months ago when she was cring and wanted her mommy (me!) and someone else had her. But we all thought that it was a cute coincidense but now she'll just put out that lower lip and somberly say "mamamama". Of course its cute when its the first couple of times that day, but on days like today when she wont let me even go to the bathroom I feel more than loved.This past week she also started saying "ba" and "baba". She also has discovered how to do respberries, which are really funny especially when she does them when Daddy is feeding her!!

Overall she is just the most wonderful little bundle of joy that i have ever met, and is growing up so quickly. pretty soon we wont be able to get her to stop talking and will be walking all over, especially over her daddys heart!
