You love to go on Daddy's shoulders...you love seeing the world almost 6 feet higher! You and Daddy still struggle during meal times and Mommy usually has to step in and finish feeding you. You just love to play with Daddy and have giggle fests with him. You recognize his voice when he comes up the stairs from work and get really excited! You always flash him your beautiful smile! You and Daddy still have your special time going to sleep...you love falling asleep in his arms. We've also taken you to Disneyland a few times and Daddy absolutely loves telling you about everything around us and has a blasts taking you on rides. I think you'll be a golfer cause you two love to play golf on the Wii. Daddy always has you in hs arms while he plays golf and you love being in his arms and watching the ball!

Mommy is relieved that she is at the halfway mark of breastfeeding. We are having so much fun playing together and I really feel we have a bond. You love to sit on my lap, turn around, flash me a smile and climb on me to give me a hug and nuzzle your face in my mine. We love going on our mini field trips and you still think the carseat is your toilet...Mommy is ALWAYS cleaning you up in public restrooms or in the back of the car!

Socks is a little sad that you really don't spit up anymore! But she loves you more and more everyday. You are starting to grab onto her face, ears and paws and she doesn't put up a fight. She just looks up at Mommy asking for help! You two love to play in the morning when you first wake up. You love to roll around and she imitates you and you roll around together! Oddly, she knows how to pet you. There are times when we are all on the couch and you are on Mommy's lap and Socks is next to us and while we watch "Your Baby Can Read" you have one hand petting Socks. She gets a little sad when we leave her out and we play in your play area...so she settles watching from the couch!

People still comment about your hair and doll-like features...but recently we've been getting comments about how beautiful your smile is and how you're such a happy baby. When people come up to us you instantly flash them your big smile which melts them into pieces! You are a people lover and love to entertain little old ladies that want to talk to you!

6 months have flown by and soon enough you'll be 1! You are an amazing baby and we love you to pieces! You are developing into your own personality and we can't wait to see all the memories you are going to give us!

Love,

Mommy & Daddy
