Sittin' Pretty!

We just got back and all settled from our trip to New York City. More on the trip itself more later, but while were were in the Big Apple, Julia, you grew up!

We'd seen the signs for a few days leading up to this, but when we got to New York, you learned to stay seated. Now, you can't get there on your own yet, but you can sure stay seated when you're placed that way.

Less than a week before, in our Easter photo shoot, your Mom had to keep her hands very close by, because you would teeter and totter and tip over every so often. But by our second day in New York, you'd mastered your new skill. 2 minutes...5 minutes...10 minutes...you just sat up, playing, reaching and not laying down until you intentionally wanted to do it!

We were very surprised, and very happy with your new found sittin' skills!

You sat in the house:






You sat in the park:




And of course, in this family, you never sit alone! So, you sat with company too!






Sitting up definitely has its advantages! Now you can eat in a high chair!





Another advantage? You and Aidan get to be even better buddies now! I think he's more excited about you sitting up than you are!







And that is really a sight to see. So keep on sittin' on, Miss Julia. You're six months old, you're sitting up (when placed there) and we're all loving every minute of it. We are so proud of you!

Long Distance Relationship

I forgot to post this video! Last week on my drive home you and your Mommy talked to me on the phone! Don't worry, I was wearing my hands-free set, to be safe. Well, your Mommy was talking to me...you were trying to eat the phone, which is what it's meant to be anyway.

A lot has happened since this video was taken, I mean a week is a long time in baby-world.

But I figured it's better late than never!

Today you are 6 months old! I can't believe you've only been with us for six months! It seems like a lifetime of learning and experiences have occurred since your birth. But then again, it seems to have gone by so quickly too!

Being 6 months old is definitely something to phone home about...or at least something to lick the phone for!
