Semi-Annual Birthday!

Kalena just had her semi-annual birthday on Monday July 28th.

Todd and I took her to have her first set of "professional" pictures done, she did pretty good overall. We got some great pictures.

She is completely turning over and trying to figure out the crawling bit. She finally doesn't mind laying on her tummy.

At Kalena's 6 month check up:
Weight- 15 pounds 4.5 ounces {45%}
Height- 26.5 inches {75%}
Head Circ- 16.75inches {50%}

Kalena is eating avocado, sweet potatoes, bananas, and rice cereal. Next week I'll be added some more fun food!!!

Big Stuff This Week

On July 3rd Kalena got to spend the weekend with her Aunt Danyen and Uncle Donny. This was not Kalena's first night away from home, but it was her first time away for multiple days. During Kalena's stay she also got to spend a day with Grandma Cheryl!! When I dropped KJ off on my way to Myrtle Beach for my first baby-free vaca with Cyndi KJ had a small bump on her face, little did I know it was the beginning of a bacterial skin infection. Danyen and Donny where troopers when the infection spread on KJ face! I was so impressed with them! High five!!!

When we got back to Orlando I took KJ to the doctor and they gave her first antibiotics. They also said it was time to start KJ on baby cereal. So on July 8th KJ had her first "solid" food. Today, July 10th Kalena started to realize that you eat baby cereal and showed interest for more. Within the weeks to come she wil be introduced to bananas, sweet potatoes, and avocados.

Weight as of July 8th: 14 pound 7 ounces
