Yesterday, Westyn turned 6 months old!!! I can't believe it and let me tell you, she has grown up over night. We celebrated by doing what else... going out to El T's and putting her in the high chair for the first time with the floppy seat http://www.floppyseat.com/ (which I highly recommend). She did great and really enjoyed sitting in her own chair and having dinner with us. She played with her toys the whole time but kept throwing them on the floor which I think may have been on purpose.
When I say she has grown up overnight I truly mean it......
*She is thisclose to crawling
*She loves to stand up and dance around, her feet are always moving.
*She sleeps through the night, going to bed at 7:30 and waking between 5-6am
*Loves baby food - we have given her cereal, carrots, beans, peas, sweet potatoes, pears, prunes, apples, bananas and will soon move on to level 2 foods.
*She is becoming very aware of my breasts and is always clawing at them when she wants to either eat or just wants to cuddle. She gets so excited she starts to snort - so funny. Not sure whats going to happen in months to come when she gets stronger.
*She has 1 tooth coming through and it's just popping out of the gums now - her toothy smile is the best.
*She is very aware of little people, either babies or toddlers. Yesterday Misty and Henry came over and Henry and Westyn were actually playing together; makes for some great entertainment. She loves her cousin Campbell and gets so excited when she see her.
*In the last day or so she has started to laugh out loud - she was a tough one for a while as Troy and I tried everything to get her to laugh. She was tickling Henry's feet yesterday and starting laughing, it was pretty cute.
*Lastly, she now completely recognizes people and will actually reach for them. She does this with my Mom and Troy and I.

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things but I will post more on Monday after her 6-month Dr. appointment.

She's getting so big! I love reading about all of her milestones!!
I love how Westyn snorts when she gets excited, Jackson does that too and we laugh so hard. She is such a great sleeper, gives me something to look forward to. You are a great mommy!
Where has 6 mos gone, Ash?! She looks SO cute, really tall! I love the pic of you and Brandon and the kids, definitely a framer. Only two weeks until I get to see you guys! xxxx
So cute! Love that she didn't laugh for so long, how funny! A serious sally! She's beautiful!
Happy 6 month birthday - she is so cute!
Dang she grows fast!!
Who's a big girl! Makena snorts when she gets excited too - it is hilarious. Can't believe Westyn will be crawling soon - what the heck? Also can't believe how big Jaxon and Campbell are! Great pics.
It is a little sad how fast it all goes, isn't it? I feel like she was just born seriously? The size difference between her and Campbell is not that different which is crazy. She is such a happy little baby and you a happy Mommy. She is really a beautiful baby.
Everytime you post pictures she is looking more and more like a little girl rather than a baby! I can't believe how fast she is growing up, it's crazy!!! She is just SO darling... Love the picture with you, Brandon and all the little ones! :)
