In all of the birthday craziness of the last week, we neglected to write much about Neve's turning six months old. (Can you believe it?) Our tiny gal is really starting to develop a sweet personality. Even the pediatrician commented on her mellow demeanor during her six-month well visit (more on that later). If you can keep her well-fed and rested (easier said than done when she is getting carted around on her siblings' schedules), she is generally quite happy and observant. She is still not rolling, but she is sitting better on her own. She really reaches out for toys, hair, glasses, anything near her general vicinity. She's reaching out and yanking enough that even Katie and Michael are taking notice...much to their chagrin. She's starting to babble a little, cranking out those MA-MA-MAs when she wants our attention. Overall, she's a great kiddo to have around.
As for that doctor's appointment, the doc was generally happy with her development. She wasn't worried about Neve's lack of movement, citing it as probable "Katie Syndrome" (lack of motivation coupled with rather large size). Speaking of her size, she has now bypassed Katie in her same-age measurements. She weighed in at 17 lbs., 10 oz. (75th percentile) and measured 28.25 inches (99th!!!!). She just may grow to be our tallest kid yet!
