Lorelei is a Half a Year Old!


Here is Lorelei at 6 months! I haven't taken her to the Doctor yet because she has had a mild cold. That would not combine well with shots. So instead of percentiles, (cause who really cares about numbers) I am going to give you a blurb on her.
Lorelei LOVES to put her feet in her mouth. This has made it very challenging when it comes to learning to sit. She just can't get enough of those toes. We put her in an upright position and she instantly bends down to those toes. Some day she will realize that there is more in the world than her toes. We started her on rice cereal and she eats it like crazy. We didn't even get a funny face from her like we did Riley. I chalk it up to the fact that she puts everything in her mouth. Which could be dangerous... Her new trick is to throw her toys and wave her arms around! She also shows excitement for things. The other day while I was visiting teaching Tami, Lorelei noticed the light fixture in her entryway. She got excited about it and started to make an "oooo ooo ooo" sound. She would then wiggle her body towards it and smile like crazy. She repeated these action the whole 30 minutes we were there. I couldn't help but laugh. Another thing she loves to do is roll everywhere. I have actually lost her in our house because of her rolling. Luckily she was just around the corner from the kitchen. Who knows, we might skip crawling altogether. :p
 
Not too long after her pictures she started doing this! She's sitting! Only for a minute of course, but man time goes by too quickly. My little lollie will soon be a toddler. I don't think I'm ready for that one yet. :p
