Happy first half birthday my precious little girl. In some ways it feels like 6 months has flown by and in others it's like I've been your mama my whole life. There are no words to describe how very much daddy and I love you but we do our best every day.
You have grown to a healthy 15 lbs 13 oz and you are 26ish inches long. It's always hard to get a precise measurement of your height because you're constantly kicking those long, long legs. You love when mommy sings Itsy Bitsy Spider and calm down when your Pop hums with you in his arms. Daddy can send you into a fit of giggles tossing you around and making silly sounds. You love picking up everything you're able to get your sweet little hands on and investigating, especially mama's phone and the remote control. The poor kitties may be bald in the next few weeks if you keep "petting" them like you do. Your love for animals is already very strong and daddy and I can't wait to teach you all the sounds they make and go on many adventures at the zoo. We often call you our little monkey because you like to use your feet to do things almost as much as your hands. You've yet to meet a food you won't eat and you're so close to sitting up all by yourself. There's no teeth in that gummy smile just yet but don't you worry, we'll give you all the good stuff as soon as you can eat it!
Sweet baby girl, your personality is shining through more and more each day and we couldn't possibly love it more. You're stubborn and willful and do things on your time. You're friendly and flirty with all the nice people we meet when we're out. You're smart and sassy and oh so curious. You want to do things by yourself, just as long as mommy or daddy is right there by your side. You're just perfect the way you are and you not ever let anybody tell you different.
Being your mama is the best job in the whole world and I want you to know that no matter what you do, I will always be here to love you.
XOXO
Mama
