No I am not a professional photographer and yes half of my pictures are done with my phone camera. Anyways, my baby is now 6 months old. I cannot believe how fast the time has gone and how big she is. It's really quite comical at the word big. In comparison to Finley's 6 months stats:
Height: Eliza 25.5 in. 50% Finley 26 in. 75%
Weight: Eliza 17.5lbs 75% Finley 15.2lbs 30%
Did you see the second category? Finley did not hit 17.5 pounds until she was 15 months old! Yes I have a healthy child as every likes to keep telling me. I absolutely love the rolls on her thighs, the chubby cheeks that I could kiss all day long, and of course the budha belly I love to tickle. Right now she looks nothing like her sister or me for that matter. Eliza's hair is coming in bleach blonde, and her eyes are amazingly blue. However, I went through some pictures and did a little comparison to what Fin looked like at 6 months, and they sort of look like siblings. They for sure have the same mouths, which is their papa's to a tee. Their personalities also seem different. Finley is full of spunk and a little dramatic. Eliza is mellow, never fusses unless she wants food or to sleep. Oh yeah, food, that is another night and day difference. Eliza LOVES to eat, while my darling Fin is still a little picky (she eats like a bird we like to say). I was also so excited to use Finley's hand me downs for Eliza. Nope, hasn't really worked. Eliza is currently 6-12 and more 12-18 month sizes. I do have both of these but the 12-18 clothes are like dead of winter attire. And with Fin growing like a weed, there goes any clothing budget for me. Kids are worth every penny, sleepless nights, emotional roller coasters, and body change we endure. (I do have to remind myself that after 0 sleep, dramatic daughter all day, throwing in house chores and work) I've honestly come to believe that being a mom is one of the hardest jobs you can have, and better understand many things that my mom has done and gone through for me.
I love that my girls are starting to interact with each other, Finley loves giving her kisses and helps give her a binki and a bottle. The change in these two over the next 6 months will be so much fun. I continue to love every stage that they grow through, but I think besides the newborn smell and cuddling, I love the 6 month stage!
