Six Months and a Day

Amelia had her sixth month birthday yesterday. Dad and Susan threw a six month/going off to college dinner for Amelia & Melanie. Above are two great pics from tonight.

Amelia's going to town on the developmental milestones: sitting up (woohoo!), moving objects from hand to hand, babbling "ba ba" and "da da", scooting on her tummy, and the clincher: not sleeping anymore!

She has gone from sleeping 5-8 hours for her first long sleep to sleeping only 2 -3 hours and then nursing every hour or two until morning. My only consolation is that all of my girlfriends with babies the same age are doing the same thing. Caffiene is my friend. I've made the move to the dark side: from tea to espresso.
