Dear, sweet Maelie!! Our little baby fatso...you are six months old today! I simply CANNOT believe it! Time has flown by. I keep treating you like a newborn infant hoping you'll stay that way, but that is not the case! I think you've surpassed your big sis in the chubby cheek/chubby thigh department! You've definitely not matched up with her sleeping skills though. You just love eating so much that you do it all through the night too I suppose, hence the chubby award. As of now your hobbies include teething (although you're not drooling as much as you used to), grabbing EVERYTHING (sissy doesn't like when you pull her hair! She says: "no no no Maemae!"), sitting up, falling over, rolling over and you're just starting to enjoy tummy time! Your smile looks like you're trying to swallow an elephant it is so wide and round! You love dance parties with the family. Sissy dresses you up in a "pretty pretty" and we all spin around the room while you throw your head back laughing! You are ticklish in your thighs and neck. YOU are just a bundle of joy! Everyone around you instantly falls in love with you. Mommy is almost tired of hearing the exclamation: "your baby is so calm and happy". I am so grateful for you. In the midst of the whirlwind that is your sister Colette, I enjoy our little nursing time together, our quiet time while she naps, and all our snuggles. You are such a sweet girl and I love you SOOOO MUCH!!!
