Happy Half Birthday Esme!

Today Esme's 6 months old.  Woohoo!  It's hard to believe that a half a year has already gone by.  She had her 6 month well child visit last week and she passed all her tests - tracking, talking, rolling over, sitting up, etc.  She got her 3 shots and barely made a wimper.  To make it easier on me this time I just decided to leave the room when the shots arrived :)  She's now 26.5 inches long and 17# 5.5oz which puts her in the 75th percentile for both height and weight.  She's still nursing like a champ so we haven't introduced solids yet but we'll probably do that in the next few weeks.  At most she takes water from our cups and is still trying to figure out how to work a straw.  But she doesn't go crazy when we're eating and not sharing with her.  Today she'll celebrate her half birthday by staying home with daddy.  Faye's Bilingual Daycare is closed this week for a summer break so we've got a different person watching her everyday.
