6 Month Update

Amoriyah has developed like crazy this month! She has found her feet and loves playing with them; it didn't take her long to start putting them in her mouth. She also learned how to roll from her back to her tummy and now is rolling around all over the place. It's definitely difficult these days to keep her in one spot. She started saying "ba-ba" too. Shortly after getting back from our Christmas trip, we broke out her jumperoo to discover that she LOVES it!!! She could easily stay in it for hours on end if we let her. It's an instant mood changer if she starts to get a little fussy or bored. Another favorite is watching Praise Baby and Baby Einstein videos. She's reaching for pretty much everything that's in reaching distance of her so we have to be careful what we leave around. She's able to sit by herself for longer and longer periods of time as well. It won't be long, I'm afraid, until we have a completely mobile baby!!

On January 23rd, we had her dedicated at Cityview Church. My parents and grandmother also came. My brother, Justin, one of the pastors at Cityview, was the one who actually did the dedication so that was also special. We also received The Jesus Storybook Bible which was a wonderful gift. On February 3rd, she had her 6 month doctor's appointment. We again learned that she is healthy and right on track! Her stats were:

18 lbs. 13 oz.
16.5 inches

On February 9th, we took her to Target again to get her 6 month pictures and they turned out great!!

LOTS of pictures below of this past month! I got a new camera right after Christmas so I've been taking many more photos. I had to really narrow down which ones I was going to put on here! Enjoy!

Here's Amoriyah's bedding. My mom actually made it and it turned out beautifully!

Amoriyah's dedication

We get lots of smiles, energy, joy and laughter from this precious girl each and every day. Even though it makes me sad at times that she's growing up so quickly, it's so exciting to see this little person that God created learning and developing. I pray that at even a young age she begins to learn truth and that God is beginning a great work of calling her to Himself. God is amazing and all glory to Him!
