Sitting Demo

Matilda demonstrates her ability to (sort of) sit.

Sitting pretty

Matilda practices her sitting. Still a bit wobbly.

Thanks to Missy for the cute brown outfit.

How now

Brown cow.

Rice cereal & sweet potatoes

Matilda's first few official bites of rice cereal and sweet potatoes. Thanks to Grandma for feeding Matilda.

Peas and carrots are next.

Daddy shows Matilda a tulip during tummy time.

Mati quickly grabs the flower and decides if she should take a bite.

Grandma

Mati enjoyed spending the day with Auntie T and Grandma at the Farmer's Market and dog beach.

Mmmm...solids

Matilda successfully ate some solids today after two weeks of practice.

Mmmm...alligator

Although we are not having great success with solids, Matilda likes gnawing on her alligator.

6-month check-up

Another photo shoot at the doctors.
Matilda only cried for a few minutes following her 6-month shots.
All of these pics were taken while waiting for the doctor.

So excited

Matilda sits up well when we prop her up with blankets. She then gets so excited and falls over.

Flowers from Daddy

Matt gave Mati and me flowers for Valentines. Matilda wanted to eat them.

Valentine hearts

Matilda keeps warm with her heart hoodie on Valentines Day.

Speaking of hearts....

Happy Valentines!

Happy hearts day from our little bunny.

Bath time

After an attempt at rice cereal, it was time for a bath.

Playtime

Matilda enjoys playing in her gym.

She gets so excited!

So sleepy

Long day. Wish I could nap.

Another favorite

This goes with the previous two pics.

Favorite pics

A couple of my new favorite photos.

Mati & moo cow

Matilda tries out her highchair with moo cow in preparation for her first food.

Blurry baby

Mati gets so excited in her carrier. Her waving arms and legs are a blur. Many thanks to Katie for giving us the Baby Bjorn.

Hardware store

Matilda enjoys going to the local hardware store with Dad.

Soon, she'll be roofing and painting just like I used to do with my Dad.

Maybe we'll wait until she can walk before giving her a paintbrush.

Happy 6 months!

Matilda is half a year, 26 weeks, or 183 days old.


Happy Birthday, Mati!


Just 6 more months until cake.

To the Golden Gate

Another walk, this time to the Golden Gate Bridge.
Matilda slept during all but the first and last 20 minutes of our walk.

I'm feeling lucky

Matilda feels lucky until she realizes that it's bedtime.

Tummy time faces

During tummy time, Matilda makes many cute faces.
