6 months old



There are probably a couple of reasons why I've waited to take and post Kayleigh's 6 month pictures. One reason is that the laptop isn't working, so it's harder to get the pictures on the computer. Those of you with a desktop probably know what a pain it is to plug the camera cord into the back of the computer. Another reason is that Kayleigh has another cold, so I've been keeping her at home and it's hard to get things done when she wants attention. But, the most likely reason is that admitting that Kayleigh is 6 months old is also admitting that my time at home is quickly coming to an end. Oh how I'm going to miss these days at home with her. Of course, in a perfect world, I would still be a stay at home mom who could take Kayleigh to day care a couple of hours a day in order to get things done around the house. :)
Kayleigh's super cute outfit was a gift from Mama Shirley. It was cold on Tuesday when I took these pictures, and it was fun to get to put her in the outfit.
On to the 6 month stats. Kayleigh had her check up this morning. All is well. People can stop talking about how much she's grown, though, because she is just as tall (or short, depending on how you look at it) now as she was at her 4 month check up. I guess she hasn't hit her latest growth spurt yet. She is up about a pound, though. She's 18 1/2 pounds now. At her 4 month check up she was 17 lbs 13 ounces. Kayleigh also had to have 4 shots today. YUCK! We did NOT like them! But, we survived, and she's taking it all in stride.

Also, that penguin seems to be getting smaller and smaller.
