Tatum - 6 months

So my sweet little baby is almost 7 months now... makes me sad to think about how quickly her first year is flying by. Her 6mo checkup was a few weeks ago and it was our first visit to the new pediatrician - Dr. Marcie Castleberry. She was GREAT! Very interested in what was going on with my baby girl and was very gentle. She didn't seem to be in any hurry and Tatum didn't fuss one time with her! I liked the office staff as well, and didn't have to wait even 20mins!!! Tatum got 3 shots and barely fussed at all (what a big girl) and was asleep before we got out of the parking lot. Here is what little Tatum is up to these days:

*18lbs, 7oz
*Loves to eat baby food! - She is taking 2-3 jars (or those square containers) per day in addition to her bottles
*Loves to bounce in her bouncy horse, and will try to bounce on your lap all she can
*Coos and babbles - especially at her Momma
*Holds up her arms when she wants me to take her
*Can sit up by herself :)
*Is starting to crawl this week :( - she can't go very far, but she is definitely moving
*Loves her sister and tries to play with her, touch her, rub her face on her all she can
*Can reach out for and pick up an object unprompted and will transfer it from hand to hand (or stick it directly in her mouth)
*Is still really ticklish ♥

So... she is still a big, healthy, sweet baby and I thank God for her every day. I'll keep you posted on what she's doing.
