Bristol's 6 month update

Here is the update from Bristol's 6th month appointment today:

1. She weighs 17.7 pounds - gained 2 pounds since her 4 month appointment. And is .7 pounds larger than her sister was.
2. Her length is 27 1/2 inches which is 1/2 inch bigger than her sister. She is only in the 75% and a lady the other day asked me if she was a preemie. Say what? I was like "uh, excuse me?" She thought she looked tiny. Ok! That might be the only time Bristol ever hears that.
3. She blew out her diaper the minute we walked in to the actual room and got poop all over the front of my shirt. LOVELY! And, of course, in the chaos of getting out of the house I did not have a change of clothes. Luckily I had a diaper and 5 wipes. They probably would have called Child Services if I didn't have a diaper.
4. Bristol is totally enjoying food. She loves to eat the little puffs, but can't eat the whole thing so we have to break all the little spokes off of the wheel. Peyton also would really like to feed her. This will be our new challenge.

Here are random development milestones:
- she can sit by herself once propped up.
- she is crawling....kind of. She will get on all fours and rock back and forth. Then she launches herself forward and low crawls to her destination. It keeps us busy pulling her away from things she should not be in.
- she sticks her appendages out of the slates on her crib. The other morning I woke up to her pulling the plastic from the diaper bag through her crib. The diapers were stacked in front of her crib in our room.
- she is becoming more difficult to put a diaper on. Constantly flipping over, rolling, wiggling, etc.

Bristol is still the perfect baby. She smiles all the time and is very easygoing.
