Janessa Faith...6 months old!

Happy 1/2 Birthday to my baby girl! Janessa has got to be one of the EASIEST babies to take care of. On our trip to North Carolina a couple of weeks ago, she barely fussed at all in the car. She sleeps like a champ and eats like a champ. She just adores her big sisters (although she may fear Libby a little more than Keira!). Oh how I love to just watch my girls as they develop their own little relationships with each other.

Janessa looks more like Keira most of the time...and sometimes like Libby...and sometimes just like my sister, Jessie...and sometimes just like my dad.....and sometimes yet, just like my papa. So strange how genetics can work that way. 

Janessa is now mostly sitting by herself (with pillows around just in case) and love to play on her tummy and scoot herself around in circles. She rolls both ways (FINALLY!) and I have been finding her sleeping in some interesting positions. So cute and sweet. She can squeal the highest pitch squeal I have ever heard (may have something to do with her cleft palate) and does it whenever someone is not paying attention to her...almost her way of saying, "hey...I'm over here!" Also...it seems she has been saying "mama". I know it seems a bit crazy and I will admit, I am skeptical. However, whenever I walk away from her....we hear it! "mamamamamama" in a whine. When I come back, she just smiles and squeals. haha.

Love this little peanut!

Janessa weighs in at 15lbs. 10oz (50%) and is 27 inchest tall (90%!) with her head being in the 50th percentile.

I could have guessed since she keeps growing out of her clothes lengthwise!

Still weighs the least of any of my babes at this age!
