6 months old?!

Where in the world does the time go??? Our BABY is 6 months old. That's half a year. It just doesn't seem possible. She has the be one of the sweetest babies I've ever been around. I'm not just saying that because I'm her mom, although I am partial.  Trent took her to her check up because I was in Abilene. Everything was great. She was doing everything she was supposed to and more. Her stats were: 16.8 lbs 69%, 26.5 in 79% and her head was 43.5 cm 80% --she's definitely started filling in.





In the past month:
-She is super smiley above all else. If I had one word to describe her it would be smiley. She smiles all the time. In fact I have people ask me all the time 'does she always smile like that?' Yes, she does. Unless she's hungry or tired. I love her happy disposition.
-She is wearing size 2 diapers 
-3-6 month clothes are starting to get too small. She mostly wears 6 months or 6-9 months. 
-Her sleeping is pretty sparatic. I blame it on our summer schedule. Some nights she sleeps all night 8:30-9:00pm until 8:00am. But she has nights that she'll wake up between 4-5am for a bottle and go back to sleep until 8:00-8:30. 
-She is full time formula. She has 6 oz bottles every 3 hours or so
-She eats oatmeal for lunch and dinner. She loves the oatmeal. 
-She's starting to get up on her knees in the crawling position. 
-She rolls all over the place. We can't leave her on the bed anymore and when she's on the floor she can make it across the room in no time. 
-She is so ready to follow Madison and Cooper. She watches them non-stop and struggles to see them if they move out of her view. 
-She is filling out. She's getting some thighs. 
-We were in an awful roll over accident in our Yukon on our way to the zoo
-She had her first trip to the zoo a week after our accident 
-She went to the lake for the first time. She hated the life jacket. 
-Everything goes into the mouth! Everything. 
-She can sit up but doesn't seem to like it. We still have to balance her in the sitting position and she can hold it but most of the time she immediately throws her self back, flips over and gets in the crawling position again. I'm telling you...she wants to move! 

We are so blessed that Karsyn is so easy going and laid back. She truly is no problem at all. She's happy to be around people and loves when people talk to her. She goes with the flow and I guess that's good when you're the last of 3. We love seeing her personality develop and are so thankful God chose us to be her parents! We love you so much sweet Karsyn.

She loves swimming
