Abigail had her 6 month check-up on May 1st.. ALL IS WELL!! We have a very happy and healthy little girl.. growing little girl- 18 lbs and 26 inches!!
We started adding rice cereal into her bottles during the day (11am and 3pm)-- and once a day we are eating rice cereal with a spoon (usually around 7:3o pm)-
The first time we tried feeding with a spoon was great. She already puts everything in sight into her mouth- a spoon with cereal was no different. WHAT A FUN TIME FOR ALL THREE OF US.. Of course, a bath was enjoyed thereafter!

We will be starting solid baby food in June.. and plan to share the big event with all of the Dores during our family vacation to Destin, FL. After much thought (can you say "first time mom")-- I think we will start with Squash-- we will see how that goes..
She is sitting up (with little support), picking up toys (and throwing them all over the backseat), and is talking more and more.. She sleeps 10 hours a night (knock on wood) and really doesn't use a pacifier that much. When she is sleepy she sucks her thumb and plays with her hair (Uncle Brian). This week (May 10) she began saying "da-da-da"-- which was an exciting moment for Mark.. Although I argue that there is no word association (we will have to consult Mimi)-- there is no doubt that she truly is DADDY'S LIL GIRL!
All in all, we have been enjoying our time with Mark- we all rejoice during semester breaks!!
