Molly at Six Months


It's hard to believe, but Molly was 6 months old on Friday! She had her checkup with Dr. Glass yesterday, and she weighs about 15 1/2 pounds and is 27 inches long. When she was born, she weighed 7 1/2 pounds and was 20 inches long. Dr. Glass was very pleased with her progress, although we think she needs a little work in the hair growing department! We get more and more comments from people about her baldness, but we've resigned ourselves to the bald baby club for the foreseeable future.

Molly continues to be a delightful baby. Just last week she started saying "Da Da Da Da Da," and she's making progress on her crawling attempts every day. She's a very determined baby, and she tries over and over to hoist herself into a crawling position. Thankfully she still doesn't have enough balance to actually crawl (we're in no hurry to have a mobile baby), but it's fun to watch her try. She's still a very happy baby and loves to smile at everyone. A woman who has a child at speech therapy camp says, "Hi, Social Baby" every time we pass her in the hallway there.

They're both too cute, Marty! Thanks so much for sharing! They grow up too fast, don't they?
