What more could she go through in one day?? We felt so bad for her! Thursday I discovered that a tooth bad broken through on her bottom gums. (Since then a second one has broken through on the bottom!) The same day that she had to go to the doctor and get her 6 month shots...and her nose was so stopped up that she could not lay down to go to sleep. Finally I put her in her swing and she slept in there for 2 hours! Don't know that she has ever done that! The doctor told us to wait another week on her nose and if it's not better he will probably give her an antibiotic to clear it up.
Here are her official numbers from her check-up! She is getting so big!
Weight - 15 pounds, 14 ounces (41%)
Length - 27 inches (85%)
Head Circumference - 16 3/4 inches (48%
**My mom looked in my baby book to see where I was at 6 months, and Lydia is almost exactly the same size that I was, only an ounce difference! And, I got my first tooth when I was six months old! :) **
He said that she was looking good and told us that we could go ahead and start her on baby food. We started with Sweet Peas...at first she was not too sure about it, but tonight she did a lot better. Hopefully she will do well with eating real food. We are hoping it will help her sleep a little better at night.
"Do I look happy about this?"
Last night we decided to go to the Arkansas Baptist football game for a little bit. This is where Jeff graduated high school. We just stayed until half time, but we had a good time. It was good to get out of the house for a little bit and the weather was perfect! Lydia did so well. She could not stop looking around at everything and everyone. I know Jeff hopes there will be many more football games in the future!!
Today we stayed home and did absolutely nothing but watch football and spend time together as a family. It was a blast! I can't remember the last time that we were able to do that. It was nice to not have anywhere we needed to go or anything to do.

I love the picture of her sleeping in her swing; it is so sweet! And, family time doing nothing is very needed sometimes.
She is getting so big! You would never know that Lydia was a preemie. I hope she is feeling better now. One thing I did for Andrew when he was teething was to freeze a damp washcloth. Most of the teethers were too hard for his mouth or he couldn't hold on to them but the cloth worked great. That's funny you almost picked the same blog background that I did because I was looking at the one you choose too. It will be the end of the month before you see any house pics, but I'll be sure and send them once they're done. Tell Jeff I said hi and give Miss Lydia a hug for me. Love you!
Hey Sarah I was just wondering about the sling that you are wearing in the ball game picture. Where did you get it, it is really cute. Jamie just might need one of those!
Just wanted to let you know I have enjoyed reading your blogs about your family. I'm glad your baby is doing well. Tell Craig and Heather hello from me next time you see them. And Cassie too!
