McKenna

McKenna will be 6th months on the 27th. I can't believe how fast time has gone. It's just nuts. She can roll over now. She rolled the first time on Oct. 9th. from her back to her belly. A couple weeks later she started rolling from her belly to her back. She rolls everywhere now. Especially if Hunter is on the floor. She loves to roll to him and attack him. She's getting revenge for all the times he's got her.

She has been teething lately. Her gums are swollen, she drools like crazy! (Hunter never really drooled so it's a whole new thing for me) She can soak a shirt in no time flat. She has been chewing on anything and everything she can get her hands on. She's had a fever. So, I know they are well on their way. She's been pretty happy through it though. She is just sleeping a lot more.

She LOVES real food. She drinks her formula okay but she prefers the good stuff. She ate a half a jar of carrots the other day. She had spaghettios with Hunter the other night. (the little o's that are in the can, cuz there are 2 sizes) She's had all sorts of baby food. She loves animal crackers. She likes her baby puffs (the gerber ones that melt in your mouth). We can't wait for Thanksgiving so we can try stuffing and mashed potatoes!

She is doing well with her head. She doesn't have to have a helmet, thank heavens. She has to go back one more time in Dec. to check her neck movement and make sure she is doing okay with that. She seems to be doing much better with it now that she can roll, she has it moving a lot more. So, we're keeping our fingers crossed that she doesn't have to do physical therapy.

She has discovered how to bounce in her bouncer. It took her a couple days to really figure that thing out. She liked to be in it because she could be up and see things and loved playing with the toys on it. We kept trying to teach her how to bounce in it, and finally she figured it out, and now she bounces like a crazy fool.

We love are little angel and are so happy she is a part of our family!
