I can't believe that it has already been 6 months since I had Rachel. Time is just flying by and Rachel is just getting bigger and bigger. I'm not sure how big she is but we will find out on Wednesday at her 6 month check up. I have a feeling that she is around 16 lbs and 26 or 27 inches long. It seems like she just grew all of a sudden. One day she was in 3-6 month clothes and now she is in 6-9 month clothes.
Along with getting bigger by the minute, Rachel is starting to get a lot smarter too. She is figuring out the art of rolling over, she has rolling from her back to her tummy down and is now figuring out how to flip back over. I know one day soon I will look away for a moment and look back to find her half way across the room. I love watching her play, she has become incredibly grabbing and reaches for everything! I mean everything!
Today when she was playing she got a little mad at me and I swear she yelled "mom" three times and knew what she was saying. She has been saying the sounds "ma ma" quite a bit lately and maybe she knows what it means. Rachel has been trying to talk a lot this month. I can't wait until she can say "I love you mommy."
For a while it seemed that she was going back to her old sleeping habits but she is still struggling with it a little bit. I think she really is starting to teeth. I felt her gums the other day and they are starting to feel swollen and it seems that her molars want to come out first but I don't know. I am praying that I will be able to have a steady sleep schedule again...but I don't know if that is going to happen anytime soon.
I am amazed by my little girl everyday, God has indeed blessed me and Josh with a beautiful child. I wouldn't trade being her mommy for anything else in this world. (I would love my sleep back... :]) Thank you God for everything, thank you for blessing me with my wonderful daughter.
