Evie - 6 months old

Hard to believe it's been half of a year since our little Evie joined our family (and really it's almost been 6 1/2 months - this mom has been really bad about updating this blog!).  

Evie is so much fun right now.  She's really starting to interact with all of us!  The boys love to make her laugh and I'm pretty sure she's rather laugh at them than me and Chris.  As soon as we put Evie on the ground she's all over the place.  She does a roll, sit up, roll thing to get all over.  So this week we got out the baby gate to put up!

Evie has been sitting up on her own for about 3 weeks now - it happened pretty fast and then just this weeks she's really trying to pull herself up on things so she's standing.  I have a feeling we are going to have an early walker like Borne.  I think she just wants to keep up with her brothers!

She is such a good sleeper.  Normally she'll go to bed around 7:30-8:30pm and sleep until 7:00am.  Last night she did wake up at 1:00am for a 4 oz bottle and that's the first time I've woken up with her in a really long time.  Seriously maybe like May?  She's a GOOD sleeper!

She loves baby food.  We started feeding her veggies in the last couple of weeks and she just gobbles them right up.  I think her favorite so far might be sweet potatoes or squash.  But pretty much anything we put in front of her she'll eat!

We are trying to transition from soy formula to milk formula.  So far it seems to be going really good!

We visited the doctor last week and here are her stats:
Height: 25 1/2 - 24%
Weight: 15 lbs 3oz - 28%
Head: 17 1/4 - 75-90%

So she continues to stay on the smaller side but proportionally she's just perfect!

Evie has a great little personality and is really laid back.  She just goes along with whatever we are doing - unless she's really hungry or tired - she'll let you know!

Here are a few pictures from her 6 months photo shoot.


 Thanks Aunt Chelsea for the cute pink tutu outfit!
