We have a 6 month old

Our baby is 6 months old.  I know I say it every month, but really how did she get to be 6 months old. She is just the cutest thing around.

-She still loves food.  There's a few things that we think upset her stomach but for the most part she has loved everything we've given her.
-She still is not really consistent with eating and sleeping schedule, but is still sleeping through the night well with just really early mornings.  Good thing I'm a morning person for the most part.
-She does the army crawl, so crawling is in the near future.
-She loves to eat her feet
-She has moved on to different binkies that match her age
-She loves being outside, walking, and on mom and dads bed.
-Shes so talkative, and makes noises that sound like actual responses to our questions.  She makes this long sigh as if shes bored of the conversation taking place
-Shes starting to really love little kids
-She is very intrigued by technology, probably because its so bright and shiny
-She goes to Elders Quorum now with dad due to moms new RS calling
-Shes a little heater and is always warm, so she loves the AC
-She is starting to wake up and be content to play in her crib for a few, when we go to get her shes just so happy and silly
-She loves her dad, when he comes home its like her day is made
- Shes a pretty big baby, not so much in weight but shes so long.  Shes as tall as two of her cousins that are already one.
-She sleeps in the craziest positions, and usually is at a different end of the crib by morning.
- She makes us so happy
-We sure love our little girl

My first Mother's Day

So this year was my official first Mother's Day, and it was wonderful.  I love being a mom, and it helps that I have an adorable baby to be a mom too.  Daniel surprised me by coming home and telling me a few days prior to Sat. that his sister was babysitting on Sat. so he could take me on a date for Mother's Day.  I thought it was so sweet.  I was pretty excited because with a little one and living on a budget dates usually don't happen as much as we would like.  They usually are just playing a game once the babes has went to bed.  So needless to say this date was needed and was so much fun.  Daniel let me choose what we were doing for an activity and then choosing where to go for lunch.  We went bowling at BYUs bowling alley, then he showed me around the library where he'd been working, then surprised me with letting me pick out a few books for L, then Chili's for lunch.  I love my husband so much and am grateful that although I'm not his Mother he recognizes that I'm his daughters mother and wanted to do something special for me.  On Sunday he even humored me and wore a matching tie to match me and L (wish I would have got a picture)  Our ward did cinnamon rolls for all the women in the ward.
