Doctor says...

Mikaela had her 6 month check-up earlier this week. She is a little bit over 15 lbs. and is 2 foot 2 (26 inches). Her first tooth is poking its way through. You can actually see the tip. She was having a hard time a couple days ago, but seems more at ease today :) Hopefully the little boogie-tooth will come soon... and her pain will be gone...at least until tooth #2 decides to pop up! Until then, she chomps on anything and everything!! I think she likes Daddy's fingers the best :) As far as food goes, she REALLY loves her yellow veggies, but isn't a fan of the green ones... go figure! I think she's a mini-Kevin :) Oh, how I love my family :)

Carrots... YUM-O

Today we had our first adventure with veggies! We tried carrots and Mikaela LOVED them! I sure hope this means she's a "good" eater ;) Mikaela has really improved with her table manners. She learned to keep her cute little hands on her lap during meal time. She is a LOT more focused on her food instead of the windows... the table... the plants... the microwave, especially when you can see a little reflection in it... the trash can... the ceiling lights... the mini-blinds... the doggies... well, not really the doggies, she still gets distracted every time they venture into the kitchen and up to her booster seat. Gunner desperately tries to lick the mush off her face :) And Grunt, well, he just wants to feel loved and noticed :) She adores them! Anyways, I'm so excited about introducing all sorts of new and yummy food to Mikaela! We're gonna have TONS of fun! Yippee!
