All I want for Christmas...

Today, we discovered Lillian has her first tooth!  It crept in silently.  Sure, she's been drooling a lot for months, but what kid doesn't?  I guess we should be grateful that this new body part didn't wreak too much havoc on our lives, let's hope the next 19 are as gentle on her gums as this one was.  I tried to get Lillian to show off her pearly white tooth but she wasn't into modeling this evening.  Here's a photo gallery of my attempts...

Just in time for turkey!

Lillian at 6 Months

Lillian is 6 months old today!  She is almost sitting up by herself.  She does great as long as you sit nearby or prop up the boppy pillow right behind her.  But as soon as you think she's got it and turn your head, she nose dives into the floor!  She's eating (and enjoying) food now. She's had cereal, acorn squash, green beans, peas and carrots.  She likes to hear mommy sing (she must be tone deaf), reach for & touch everything and she really enjoys watching older babies and kids play, but most of all she loves playing "Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall" with daddy.
