6 months--Lakyn's half birthday!


Ta-Da--Lakyn is getting ready to give Vanna White a run for her money!
Happy 6th Months to our What's Shakin Lakyn Bacon :)

Lakyn weighed in at 14 pounds 2.5 oz. and is in the 10th percentile.
She is 25.5 inches long and is in the 45th percentile.

Lakyn and Brynn were almost exactly the same size at 6 months where Caden was heavier and longer--which really surprised me!

Lakyn is enjoying solid food--we have done rice and oatmeal cereal, sweet potatoes, squash, peaches, and pears.  So far doing pretty well eating everything but really loved pears!

She is close to sitting up by herself, but not quite there yet, and she is rolling over like crazy and has currently started rolling over when she sleeps--I think the first time she did it, it scared her, but now she loves it and it doesn't take long before she rolls over and sleeps on her tummy.

Sleep is still a work in progress--some nights it is a good night with her only waking up 1 time, other times it is at least 2 times and some nights--she constantly loses her pacifier and we have to get up to give it to her..she is high maintenance!

She is still doing about 4 oz. in her bottle and eating baby food twice a day, plus we have started to introduce a sippy cup.  We are still nursing, but will probably start supplementing with formula as I get ready to go back to work.  Lakyn is wearing 6 month clothes!

 



Our good friend Kindra baby-sat Lakyn this past month and she spoiled us (again) and bought her this adorable outfit!

Love those messy baby faces!

 

We took Lakyn swimming for the 1st time this month--here she is modeling her swimsuits!


Lakyn is also enjoying her play center!



Here is Lakyn's 1st time swimming at the Ellsworth pool--she loved watching all the kids splash and play and there was a group of middle school girls who kept coming up to her and talking to her which she LOVED!


Girl time!
Awww-6th month is fun!
