- Ava is the poster child for "averages." (on July 22) You are 16 lbs 8 oz and 26.5 inches long. You fit exactly in 6 month clothing. Right on track. I believe your head size is also average.
- You are our little owl eyed baby. Many people comment on your eyes. You pretty much always look stunned and wide eyed. We love it because we love your pretty blue eyes.
- You love your paci. You have figured out how to put it back in which is great for sleep time; you can do it on your own!
- On that note, you just recently started sleeping through the night which everyone is excited about!! You aren't perfect by no means and you don't sleep in late like your brother but in generally we are thankful for the nice long stretch!
- You have been sitting up great for a while now. You generally prefer to sit up now to play and often get mad when you fall over.
- You are getting close to crawling. You can push up on all fours once and a while but you manage to spin and shimmy any direction you want. A new round of baby proofing is on the horizon.
- You are starting to get mad when people take things away from you. You have a tight grip but when we take it away it is often a loud yell and cry.
- You generally take 3 naps but that often turns into 2 naps and 2 cat naps because we like to get out a lot in the nice weather and go to parks or friends houses. You love being outside. So far you have most enjoyed the sand at Discovery park in McMinnville.
- You want everything your brother has. Its's already starting. You have your own "buddy" the giraffe because you often want to steal your brothers.
- We mostly are doing baby led weaning in terms of food (fancy name for solid foods from the start instead of purely purees). The purees I have tried so far didn't go over well and you just seem to like to play and munch on actual food so that's what we are doing. You have had broccoli, avocado, carrots, sweet potatoes, squash and zucchini, banana, pear and plain yogurt.
- Your hair is without a doubt red and continues to grow especially on the top and front. We love it!
- Although we contemplating changing your name (gasp!) before the 6 month mark we decided not to. We love your pretty name that fits such a pretty little lady. We love you Ava Noelle!

Ava Noelle: 6 Month Update
I can't believe our little lady is 6 months old. Time is flying by and as much as I hate that, I love seeing this little one grow! She has brought pure joy with her. She is our little firecracker and just loves to smile and play and be in on any and all action going on. Things to remember:
