Zoe at 6 months

My recent posts have been a bit 'Ben-heavy' so this one is all about Zoe. She was 6 calendar months old on Monday (13th October). I did try to have her on the 12th so their birthdays would be exactly 6 months apart, (and therefore easier to remember) but she wouldn't oblige!

Here she is on Monday sitting up all by herself! I checked Ben's baby book, and he didn't sit up on his own until he was nearly 8 months old, and Zoe also rolled over a full month sooner than him. I had her weighed and measured, and she is now 15 lbs 6 oz, and 65 cm long.


Here she is when she was born (taken on my phone, hence a bit fuzzy) when she weighed 8 lbs 11 oz. I think its just amazing how much they change in only six months!

And here she is on Tuesday, also taken on my phone, in her swimming costume. Her favourite trick at the moment is sucking her toes, as you can probably tell from this picture!
