Healthy Baby

We went to the doctor last week for Ella's 6 month appointment and she is doing great!! She weighs 17lbs, 3oz and is 27.5 inches long. She is still in the 96% for height for almost 70% for weight so as the doctor said, she likes her food!! Ella had a great time playing with the paper on the doctor's exam table and entertaining Dr. Ankrah and the nurses, that is until it came time for her shots. She did well though and unlike her 4 month shots, she didn't seem to have any lingering effects.
She can now start eating more and more foods and will eat them 3 times a day! She tried some cheerios and she immediately made a gagging sound and spit it out but we tried again with the puffs and she seemed unsure at first but now loves them. (That is when she actually eats them and doesn't throw them on the ground for Dakota to eat!) She also tried a "cookie" for the first time and LOVED it right away. She made the biggest mess but she was happy.
We finally had a beautiful weekend with warm weather so we enjoyed lots of time outside playing and on walks. I can't wait until the warm weather is here to stay permanently.
Here are some pictures from the weekend.
