Seriously where did the time go? Haylea just had her 6 mo check up and she is still such a little peanut! I thought for sure she would be at least 14 lb but she was 13 lb 11 oz...so almost but not quite! LOL She is in the 11th percentile...down from the 15th but her ped is ok with it. She got her shots and some tylenol and is now passed out in her swing. I updated my blog if you want to see pics.

Our Miracle Baby...

Oh and I am also celebrating 6mo of breastfeeding!!! There were times I really didn't think I could do it but now that I have made it through supply issues and pumping at work and being sick a few times, I know I can make it another 6 mo. It finally seems like it is doable to make it to one year! I am so happy I have been able to keep going!

She is so cute! I love the pics of her in the baby legs!!!

I'm so glad you posted about making her food, it is something that I plan to do cause I homemake alot of things we eat, so it's good to hear you are having a positive experience.

I love her baby legs too! Congrats on the breastfeeding milestone! 6 months is awesome! I'm almost at a month and know how you feel about the one year thing. But, each month is one closer to a year so I just keep thinking of it like that.

She is beautiful and still so tiny! I can't believe how fast 6 months have gone by.

That is such great news on all fronts April! I sometimes wish Reese wasn't gaining weight as fast as she is...I know it means she's healthy but man oh man I'm going to miss her being a tiny peanut. New pics??

She is SOOO adorable! Glad the shots are over, we have to get Addison's 2 month next week and I'm not looking forward to it. I plan to make the baby food too, I'm glad you're liking it! So after you freeze them, you put them in a ziplock bag? Do you just dump all of them in one bag (ie, they don't freeze together if they're touching in one bag?)

Yeah...I love making her food. Just don't do what I did and make carrots! LOL I just had to throw them out because you aren't supposed to give them homemade carrots because of the nitrates. Baby food companies can limit the nitrates but you don't know when you make them at home how much they have in them. I just found out at the Dr.

Great update. SHe's sitting so well.

I didn't know about the peas not being digested. I made my girls peas and they haven't had an issue. I ground them a ton with my food processor, so they must just pass the little shell in bits. I agree that making food is so easy and cheap. Great job.
