Sienna is 6 months old!!

I can't believe it's already been half a YEAR! And look, she sat up for the photo! (Well, only momentarily, she eventually falls sideways or leans forward, but those stomach and back muscles have definitely strengthened!) Thanks for the new dress Auntie Shannon! :) Our little munchkin is almost crawling too, she gets up on all fours and sways back and forth. Just today, she "crawled" all the way from the computer desk, out the bedroom door, all the way to the bathroom - she likes slapping the travertine tiles! No longer can we set her down in one place and expect her to still be there a minute later! She almost sat up by herself the other day too. And as the video I will post soon shows, she can say "mama" - although she only uses it when she's serious, for example, to tell us she's not going to go back to sleep in the middle of the night and mom must come pick me up, or when she is bored or fussy, like when I am taking too long window shopping at the Nordstroms Anniversary sale! She said "dada" yesterday too, but again, they are just her new sounds, we'll see when she actually uses them to call us by name. As mentioned previously, she also started eating solids this month, and started sleeping in her own room. She can also hold her own bottle, but I'm guessing she's been able to do that for awhile now and we just didn't know since she rarely feeds from a bottle! Still wakes up once in the night, oh well. But she is such happy baby, her laughs and big smiles are the best thing too see, and she is so social and curious, it's great. I will email people all of our Month of July photos soon!
