Happy 6 Months baby girl! Wow...6 months already. Here's the recap & milestones Maddie's met since 3/13/08:
~ surprise birth a month early by emergency C-section
~ 2 open heart surgeries
~ 2 heart catheterizations
~ 30 days lived at Children's Hospital
~ 3 ER visits
~ 1 ambulance ride
~ 11 doctor's appointments
~ has "beat" the NG tube twice and oxygen cannula
~ almost tripled in size since birth!
~ laughs, smiles, jabbers, shrieks, spits, coos, blows bubbles
~ sleeps a 5-6 hour stretch at night now!
~ wears 3-6 months clothes and size 2 diapers
~ loves her thumb...it's for the long haul, no doubt
~ started rice cereal & some baby food, not a big fan
~ she's a snacker and a grazer...would prefer not to eat if she could!
~ rolls from side to side but not over yet
~ holds head straight up during tummy time & supports head steady
~ grabs toys and switches them between hands
~ stands up & loves it! Can even balance by herself holding onto something
~ adores her brothers, especially Jace...she comes ALIVE when he's near
~ not good in crowds or around a lot of people...cries and worries! She's a
homebody (house arrest does this to a girl)
~ a "mommy's girl" through and through and I love it, can't get enough!
