6 Months Old!

Mena is now 6 months old. She weighs 16 pounds and 9 ounces (50-75%). She's 27 inches long (90%). Her head is 17 1/4 inches around (75-90%). So she's growing very well!

She got too long for the carrier car seat so we've moved her up to the next size car seat. We've also begun introducing foods. The first veggie I gave her was peas! She seems to like them more than her mother :)

Playing with Toys

She's learned to throw the rattle so we attached it to the binky string!
She loves jumping in her baby einstein activity center!

Happy Birthday, Peyton, Kayla, and Beth!

We went to Omaha to celebrate everyone's birthdays on March 1st. Mena wasn't much in the mood to be held but she seemed to enjoy everyone playing on the floor with her. She was looking pretty cute in her clothes from Cabela's thanks to Grandpa Frye!
Peyton tickling her and playing with Mena.
Sitting up with Aunt Beth who is going to add another baby to the family in August.
Grandma's pretty fun to play with, also.
Mommy got the best smile that day :)

Cuddle Time


Mena fell asleep on Gene. I thought it was a great daddy/daughter picture.

Playing with Mommy and Emmy Lou


Gene snapped a great pic of us playing on the floor together.
