Cate is 6 and a half months old now. She now has a second tooth. She has been less fussy the past two days since the second tooth has completely broken through. Her two little teeth are very cute on her.
She has completed her two containers of sweet potatoes and did very well with it. We started Peaches yesterday. I knew she would like it since she has had peaches before in her mesh teether.
She has been very happy and playful today. She slept until 7am, had her bottle, played in her activity center and then we all went grocery shopping. After shopping she had some cereal and she and I left to do some shopping. She took a short nap while at Target but then woke up and played while we did some more shopping around town. She took another nap when we got home. Cate had her lunch bottle after her nap then played on the floor with her new cell phone toy. We got this because it lights up when she hits the buttons. She loves to play with the TV remote because it does the same thing, however when she mashes the buttons she changes the channel, adjusts the volume or attempts to order on Demand! haha. So we got her something else that lights up. We considered getting her a little laptop since she's so intrigued with mine, but thought it would be too much right now. Maybe later :) After playing for a while, she had a snack and took her afternoon nap. I managed to finish dinner a little early so Mike and I ate while Cate finished her nap. Once she got up, she ate dinner (cereal and peaches). She played in her high chair for about an hour, then on the floor for another hour. She's settling down now, we'll get her bathed and to bed.
Cate is still attempting to crawl, but she only seems to move backwards and in a circle. She still gets on all fours and rocks back and forth.
She has also started rocking in her high chair more. She was doing it after dinner tonight and thought it was very funny!
She has been incredibly talkative today. "Ba-ba-ba-ba", gurgling, screaming, blowing raspberries and her typical baby talk. She has a very sweet voice.
She has gotten alot better at entertaining herself lately. She will play on the floor or in her bed alot longer than she used to. She played for a whole hour in her high chair after dinner tonight before needing to get out. She is sitting up better for the most part, however she tends to spread out her legs in weird positions. We also got her a new cup today with a straw to see if she would take to it over the sippy cup. I couldn't find one with a straw and handles, so I'm not sure it'll work out. But she certainly tried.
She hits her hand on everything now trying to see what kind of noise it makes. She hits her hand on the floor, the couch, herself, you, her chair, her bed...everything. If she finds it makes a loud enough noise, she'll giggle at it and continue to hit it. It's very funny when she slaps her tray on her high chair when I'm feeding her as if she's saying "Service! Where's my food!"
It's now bath time then bedtime! Cate says "Goodnight"

Such a fun age! They learn something new every single day. I think she is saying "bye bye bye bye" (or maybe buy-buy-buy-buy) and da (dad), but what do I know? Lol She is adorable... This is a great way to 'get to know her' from 20,000 miles away. Thanks for starting the blog - I for one love it!
