6 months today

Today Darcy is 6 months old. She is keeping us laughing and well entertained. I think she is the most "laid-back" kid ever. She rolls with whatever is going on in our day. She is sitting up pretty well by herself these days...the occasional nosedive is to be expected. She rolls to everything she needs and is attempting to "scoot" or "swim" to things that she cannot reach. When she is laying on a blanket and would like a toy out of reach she just pulls the blanket closer to herself and then gets to the toys. Pretty bright!



Darcy loves to eat. In the morning I fix her a bowl of fruit and rice cereal and I think, there is no way she is going to eat all this. Then by the end of breakfast I am scraping everything in the bowl because she wants more. I have tried my hand at making her baby food. I just can't bring myself to by baby meat in a jar. YUCK. So I cook the meat she is going to eat and then just freeze it. It really is quite simple. I am trying to teach her sign language. They say babies start to recognize the signs about 6 months but they typically don't perform the signs until they are about 9 months. Either way...this is Darcy's sign for more!


She enjoys play time on the floor. Building with blocks and then knocking them over. She also likes to support the Yankees on game day!
