Catherine is 6 Months Old!

Catherine turned 6 months old this week!  Here's what she's up to at 6 months:

-Looking cute with 2 bottom teeth.
-Sitting with support and toppling less and less each day.
-Getting her first tastes of food--so far, she's had peaches, peas, and sweet potatoes with sweet potatoes as the clear favorite at this point.  Oh...and just for the record, peaches were her first food.
-While she's not actually scooting yet, Catherine somehow manages to move around the floor to get what she wants.  She's pretty skilled at combining rolling and stretching to get places.  It still throws us off to peak around the corner to check on her and she's in a completely new spot!
-Usually taking 3 naps per day.  The poor thing gets woken so much, though.  I often have to take the boys places and feel horrible grabbing Catherine from her crib when she looks so peaceful.  I guess that just comes with the territory for the 3rd baby, but it makes me sad.
-Being so sweet, calm, and content 99% of the time.  She still rarely cries and just rolls with whatever craziness we have going on around here.
-Sleeping!  I've somehow been blessed with 3 great sleepers (as babies at least, we'll talk about Matthew in another post).  Catherine sleeps through the night (8pm til 6:30am) solidly these days.  I think she's woken me in the night only 2-3 times in the last 2 months.  I know-she's amazing and definitely a keeper.

Figuring out how toes taste.

Such a rare treat for her to fall asleep while I'm holding her--thank you, teething! 

Practicing some sitting.

Aunt Annie gave Catherine this onesie because she always dreamed of having a sailor dress as a kid. 

All ready for her first taste of food--Utah Peaches!
