What a pain!!

So, I am trying to close my yahoo account because it is just full of junk & mostly because it keeps sending out stupid e-mails with crazy links. I've been using my hotmail account more anyway. It's just so annoying trying to switch all my important stuff over to my hotmail address (paypal, ebay, etc.) Everything makes you confirm that you really do want to change it, which is good I guess, just annoying!

In other more exciting news, Kiley is 6 months old today!! She is about 25 1/2 inches & 16 lbs (according to our not-very-accurate measurements). She's accomplished a lot since last month...she can sit up all by herself, she can scoot a little (backwards only so far, LOL), she can suck her toes, and she started eating solids today! We gave her some cooked baby carrots. She did pretty good, got them mostly in her mouth...dropped them a lot...but overall I think she ate some & got the taste & I think she will start getting the idea of eating big people food! :)

Another thing...I went to the Cradles 2 Crayons sale today (it's a consignment sale they have here twice a year). I got some ADORABLE outfits & things for Kiley for super cheap! Today was the 1/2 off sale...I love sales! I got her several Christmas dresses that are soooo stinking cute! I think I have a weakness for Christmas outfits!

September!

Wow, hard to believe it's already September!  Kiley will be 6 months old this month.  Not sure how that is even possible.  She's so amazing.  I can't get over it.  She is such a good, sweet baby.  At least when she is well rested, that is :)  When she's tired she's Miss Fussy Pants!lol  But since we have her on a pretty good schedule she is almost always all smiles.  Sometimes I wonder if it hurts her face to smile that much!lol  She hasn't gotten crawling or scooting down yet.  She can rotate her body while on her belly.  She always turns to her right (clockwise).  It's pretty funny.  She always rolls to her right also.  I'm not sure if she knows she can roll both ways, LOL.
The other day after she had woken up from a nap she was fussing wanting somebody to come in there & get her so she could play.  Anyway, I went in there & she had one hand on the top railing of her crib & was trying to figure out how to get the other one up there.  That kid.  She is definitely her Daddy's girl.  When he was little he kicked the slats out of his crib.
Since Kiley will be 6 months old we will be starting solids soon.  We're waiting until she can sit up by herself.  Our plan as of right now is to do baby-led weaning with her.  It's basically letting the baby feed themselves with managable soft pieces, of course.  You don't spoon feed & therefore do not feed the pureed baby food.  We'll see how it goes.  We may still spoon feed her sometimes, if she will let us! (She tries to hold the bottle herself now; it's hard to get those hands out of the way sometimes!)  I think she'll really like eating "big people" food.  She already thinks she's a big girl.  She's like a chihuahua...she doesn't realize how small she is!
Well, that's what's going on here!  I don't know about you but I'm ready for some FALL weather!!
