I thought I better post an update before Christmas or I would have way too many pictures to upload! Not much has been going on in the past few weeks for us... maybe because we had a huge giant snowstorm and have been stuck in Pella? Oh well, we don't mind being at home! Bella has been doing well, and she has even discovered a few new tricks. She learned how to clap her hands, which is pretty cute to see. She also knows how to click her tongue. It's crazy how quickly she learns and changes every day!
Oh, the fun that a diapers box can provide ! Who needs toys?
Bella is still full of smiles for her Mommy and Daddy. :)
Bella has some pretty crazy sleeping positions! This is how we found her one night- all sprawled out on her kitty. She also likes to sleep on her side, and face down.
This is how we enjoyed last week's big snowstorm- watching it from inside. :) This picture also shows one of Bella's favorite things- sucking on her bottom lip! I'm not sure if it feels good on her teeth, but she is pretty much sucking on it constantly.
Such a pretty little face! Or rather, chubby face. :)
Here was our view! And this was actually BEFORE the brunt of the storm.
Bella also had her 6 month appointment this past week. Everything was fine, which was good to hear! She now weighs in at 17 pounds, is 26.5" long, and her head is 17"- and she was in the 75th percentile for everything! So she must be perfectly proportional. :) She also got the next round of vaccinations, which was not a pleasant experience for Bella OR Mommy. For some reason, after our doctor saw her, we had to wait in the room for 20 minutes before the nurse came in to give her the shots. Well, at that point, Miss Bella was already sick of being there and was quite ready for a nap. So she was crying prior to being poked with a needle, which didn't help when she actually got the shots!
Here is our little lady's pretty Christmas dress! These pictures however did not work out so well... she wasn't too interested in cooperating for us. I'll try again later!
Other exciting news... Bella is starting to become mobile! She is half scooting/half propelling herself to get to where she wants to go. Everyday she becomes a little bit better at doing it, so it won't be long until she is crawling around quickly. It's pretty funny because she catapults herself off her back legs to move herself forward. Whatever works!
We did take Bella out to see the snow on a warmer day, but I don't really think she noticed too much. :)
Hee hee, tiny baby amongst a ton of snow!
She is probably thinking, why in the world did they stick me out here?
Bathtime has also started to become even more fun! I moved her into the "big tub" this past week, and she is starting to really play with her stuff (or chew on it, whatever!). Bella also learned that she can splash water all over the place and even get Mommy wet by doing so! Such fun. :)
