Six Months of Maylee

Maylee only hours after she was born at home in our bathtub. Weighing 7 lbs and 21 inches long.

Sucking on her Daddy's finger at 1 month old. We were never able to get her to take a pacifier.

Tummy Time at 2 months. You can see from her expression how much she likes doing it. She didn't even hold her head up until 4 months.

Naptime in the buff, 3 months old. She would still rather be naked than clothed. I don't know what we're going to do when she's old enough to take off her own clothes!

4 months old and the happiest baby ever! She doesn't laugh when she's happy, she squeaks and squeals! Very loudly I might add.

Maylee is the hottest baby I have ever had. She's always sweaty. She LOVES the cold, she was so happy every time I took her outside on our vacation in Utah. Seen here at 5 months. Poor girl, the 115 degree weather is going to be rough on her!

And here's my baby girl today, 6 months old!

I can't believe her first year is already half over. Look at her! She's huge...in her puny midget-like way. LOL She loves to stand up more than any other position. I'm trying to teach her how to sit up on her own and she gets mad at me when I won't help her to stand up. Maybe she'll just skip crawling all together and go straight to walking!
I couldn't ask for a happier baby, she is such a wonderful addition to our family.

A few facts for posterity.

Maylee's favorite food is homemade sweet potatoes and just like her mommy she doesn't like applesauce. She is a real homebody, happier here than any other place. She makes an amazing variety of high-pitch sounds, I'm amazed my windows haven't broken yet, funny enough she gets that from her father. She is 12 lbs and 27 inches, can smile, roll, scoot (mostly backward) and loves her jumper. She has no teeth yet and I'm completely ok with that! We love you Maylee-goose.
