First solid foods
Week 1 is complete and Caroline really liked the sweet potatoes! She laughed everytime we fed her and grabbed for the spoon. Week 2 started today with squash and she seemed to like that too....So far so good!

Caroline is 6 months old today!
Our little girl is growing up! It is so hard to believe 6 months have passed since Caroline Mae graced us. The first few months we were all adjusting to our new family and life with a new baby- not to mention how Caroline was adjusting to this brand new world! She took her first airplane flight at 2 months old and did great! She went on two other plane trips after that one and has 3 more already planned through the summer! A girl on the go!
Since her first bath, she had loved "splish-splash" time and she is just about sitting up on her own, so we'll be trying out the big tub soon! She continues to love for us to sing the ABCs to her as we did when she was first born. Now she intently watches our mouths, probably wanting to sign along with us....One day soon, Caroline!
She loves for us to read Goodnight Moon at night, and mommy and daddy just about have the words memorized! Caroline is sleeping so well in her crib since we moved her there at about 2 1/2 months. Now she wakes 1-2 times in the night, but all we have to do is rub her back or readjust her and she is back to sleep. She goes to bed around 7:30 or 8 each night and wakes between 7-7:30 in the morning.
Caroline is starting to push up on her knees and trying to scoot....She is getting stronger and stronger and may stay up on her own soon....She can sit up for a good while, but eventually topples over....We are getting better and better and will be sitting up completely soon! She can sit in her highchair and loves sitting up high and playing with her toys. She love ANYTHING she can place in her mouth. She really laughs at the "Thing-A-Majig" animals that Mimi and Gammy gave her at Christmas. Her favorites are also her butterfly and caterpillar rattle and teethers, colorful jingily keys, Sophie the Giraffe, and the Ocean Wonders jumperoo! She can touch the ground now in the jumperoo and laughs as she jumps and plays with all of the toys.
She took a ride in the stroller the other day at the mall and it was really eye opening for Caroline- literally! I guess she was used to being in the carseat and seeing my face all the time, so to see all of the new faces while strolling along must have been something for her! We look forward to many more strolls as the weather gets warmer.
The next task for Coleman and me is to baby proof the home.... Caroline is going to be really mobile in the next 6 months! Ah, and it begins!
