6 months






Finally Spring!
We have loved getting outside. This is the nicest weather Eva's been out of the belly for!! We've spent some time outside in the yard and walking in our stroller. We also went to the zoo for the first time! She really like the big fish and the leopard that was pacing close to the glass. There as also this rope thing you walked through that was her favorite! I put a pic of it above.
Evalyn can sit on her own now for minutes at a time. She is rolling over all the time too. Sometimes when I go to her when she wakes up in her crib she'll be all the way on the other side of the crib and on her tummy!
She is eating baby foods very well now too. She loves sweet potatoes, carrots, squash, yogurt and peas. She tried the chicken last night, but she hated it. We'll try meat again in a month or so, but maybe she just won't like meat like her mama.
She's finally getting more hair, but its still thin. And her little ears still stick out like crazy, but I love them! I got her ears pierced for her 6 month bday. She was very good for it and barely cried. She has totally left them alone since then, so that's good!

5.5 Months








Lots of milestones! Eva can now turn over and stands and sits while supported. She loves to bounce and jump. She eats 'real' food once a day now. She loves yogurt and has also tried peas and sweet potatoes and apple sauce. She also loves oranges! I'm not sure I'm supposed to give them to her, but she sucks on orange slices and loves them! She sucked on a grape once too, but I don't think she ate any. She is finally sleeping better. She goes to bed at around 830 and typically sleeps until 4 or 5. Sometimes she still wakes up around 2, but rarely. She is very vocal and does a lot of yelling and high pitched screams. I think she is starting to reach up to be picked up too, which is sooo cute.
She met her Great Grandma and Grandpa Weber last week (pictured above) and we were so happy they got to see her. She is one of the few girls in that boy dominated side of the family, so they had fun seeing all her girly things. Her Grandma Babb also bought her a new swim suit with an awesome tutu which is pictured above. How ridiculously cute is that?!?
