Annabelly at 5-6 months

Oh Annie. What a sweet baby. She has had a rough time with an ear infection and some nasty eczema/ non-stop itchy dry skin, but is still generally as happy as can be. She only really cries when she has a dirty diaper, desperately needs a nap, or if we wander out of sight for too long. She mostly just chills in her bumbo and will giggle whenever we come up and interact with her.



She still wakes up usually once a night. She's also losing her hair, which is tragic. These pictures were taken over the course of a couple months, and there is quite a bit of difference. She has a patch of long dark hair on the back of her neck with a bald spot right above it. It is wispy everywhere else. It is growing back in much lighter. 
We like this bow because it mostly covers up the bald spot on the back. Baby hair is crazy. 
We tried giving her her first solid foods! She heartily objects even after a week of giving her a little bit every day. We have tried rice cereal and mushed up banana, both diluted with pumped milk. 
"why do you torture me this way parents"
We took her swimming! She was completely expressionless the whole time, but did not cry. I count that as a success! She did kick her legs quite a bit. 

Not a fan of the whole sunlight thing
Now for a montage of all the random pictures I have of her from the past few months

Another bookworm in training?
Baby zone at weekly playgroup. Annie is in the pink pants. She certainly does not lack playmates!
Elliot makes her laugh quite a bit these days
She spends a lot of time in this bumbo. She has a flat spot on the back of her head, so the pediatrician said to keep her off her back when she is awake most of the time. She is probably going to master sitting up before rolling over. Her sitting record set earlier today was about 30 seconds.
