Monday Amelia turned 6 months old. She is healthy, weighs 17.5 lbs (81%) and is 26 in tall (63%). She has 2 teeth on the bottom in the middle and is getting 2 more on either side of those. Her sitting balance is much improved and she can now get into a sitting position on her own. She has started army crawling the past few days and is quickly picking up speed. She's still not big on solid foods but has eaten a few bites of rice cereal a few times. She has not been sleeping well, up 2-3 times many nights. Last night she was only up once, which is why I am coherent enough to post this. She is still a pretty happy baby, likes to be entertained (especially by Gavin), and would like to get her hands on everything. Our house seemed a little big with just the 3 of us, now it seems just right. It is such a joy to have her in our family.
Amelia is set up in the living room with a layer of memory foam under the blanket to give her a soft spot to play (and fall):

The hard floors don't seem to slow her down any:
