6 Months Old

Alyssa turned 6 months old last week. She is such a joy! She is sitting up really well. She rarely falls over. She still loves it when someone is talking to her, especially her mommy!! All Tiffany has to say is, "Hi, pretty Lyssa" and Alyssa will get so excited. If Tiffany is holding her, Nickolas will pull on Alyssa until Tiffany puts her in the floor so he can talk to her and play with her. She is eating stage 1 baby food and cereal throughout the day. She has slept through the night several times, but it is not consistent yet. She weighs somewhere close to 17lbs 8oz now. She scoots backwards, so she will be crawling in no time. She loves to be held, which is different from when she was a newborn. She would want to be left alone to fall asleep, now she wants to be rocked. Personally I like this, but I know it makes it harder on her mommy! She is such a joy and we couldn't imagine life without her!
