Seriously? 6 Months?

Today is Kendall's half birthday, and Nate's actual birthday. Happy Birthday Nate! Kendall and I hope he enjoys his present.
Lots of happenings this past month. Lots of firsts and new things to see and do. Kendall is starting to get mobile, and is very frustrated that she is not more mobile. She wants to get into EVERYTHING, and we are really lucky she is not able to get around since we haven't gotten around to that baby proofing just yet.

But it looks like we need to get on that this weekend. (Pardon my voice, I was excited)

Kendall at 5 months
Weight - 17lbs 10oz (90th percentile)
Height - 26 inches (75th percentile)
Sounds like - Mostly we hear the sound of the jumperoo bouncing up and down and shaking, but outside of that Kendall laughs, and does a fair amount of screaming. She also likes to say ooohhh, a lot. Mostly when looking at her feet.
Likes - Jumping, jumping, and jumping. In the jumperoo, on your lap, on the counter, you get the idea. Grabbing her feet - they provide hours of fun. Sweet Potatoes and green peas - tasty! Cows - they go MOOOO (and it is HILARIOUS when mom moos)! Of course, the Winkle, Violet, and Sophie are on the list as well.
Dislikes - Napping - naps are for sucks. Sitting still, Kendall likes to be in a constant state of motion.
Things she can do - Sit up, almost completely on her own. Still a little wobbly, but working on it. Stand up assisted. Grab EVERYTHING (good thing I cut off all my hair). Eat solids. Laugh and laugh some more. Put foot in mouth - literally.

Kendall at 6 months
Weight - 18 lbs 5 oz (90th percentile)
Height -27 inches (90th percentile)
Sounds like - Kendall is quite the talker. She is constantly "talking" and "singing". She giggles a lot. Making Kendall laugh is one of our favorite activities.
Likes - Squash. Acorn & butternut squash. Kendall can't get enough of the stuff. Still with the jumping - loves that jumperoo, jumping on Daddy, and kicking her legs while lying down, sitting, standing, or being carried around. Kendall also loves to be part of everything. Sitting at the table while we eat, facing out in the stroller so she can see the world. She likes to interact - but she is very serious about it, no smiling at strangers.
Dislikes - Not very fond of apples. Being still - she likes to be doing something at all times. Not being swaddled - she likes to be snug as a bug when she sleeps.
Things she can do - Sit up on her own. Roll to her side. Stand up assisted. Get up on her hands and knees (see video above). Eat solids (acorn squash, butternut squash, peas, apples, sweet potatoes, oatmeal - and the list grows every week).

Can't believe that it has already been 6 months - they have gone by quickly. Kendall has changed so much from the baby we brought home. She is a ball of energy, going, going, going untill she can go no more. She is getting more and more personality every day, and we can't wait to see what she does next.
