Six Months!

Happy half birthday to our sweet little girl!


Zoë can now:

-grab onto toys
-sit up in her Bumbo chair
-lift her head and chest completely off the ground while she's on her tummy
-follow objects all the way across her line of vision
-bury her head coyly in mom or dad's shoulder when she's smiling at someone new
-stand on her two feet while being held (barely) by the elbows/hands
-hold her hands over her ears when she eats

She weighs 12.5 pounds!



It is quite amazing to know that sixth months ago we had no idea what we would be in for with this little girl.  How many challenges she would have to face medically, how big or developed she would even be by this milestone.  We have been VERY lucky with how strong Zoë is and how few medical interventions she has needed.  The NICU seems like a world away and I've already let it fade into my distant memory how challenging it was to go back and forth to the hospital just to SEE her every day.  What a blessing!
