Junie B. is a half year old! She's still one happy, happy baby who LOVES to smile and giggle. June's latest tricks include:
- Working on sitting up: She stills needs support, but is getting better balancing her weight.
- Playing with her toys: JEB's favorite is a plush colorful ball that jingles.
- Continuing to reach for things (toys, faces, remote controls, etc.)
- Swinging!: June recently tried a swing at the playground and she loved it!
- Attempting to crawl: June prefers to be on her tummy and has been working to get her knees under her, but has yet to coordinate all the the necessary movements for crawling. (She does do a strange-looking crab walk maneuver to get from point A to point B when she's on her back.)
- Eating solids: In addition to the rice cereal we first tried a couple of weeks ago, June began eating solids a few days before her 6-month birthday. She started with sweet potatoes, then moved on to pears, green beans and bananas. We'll try more fruits and veggies in the coming days ... This girl likes to eat (no big surprise there)! Junie starts smacking her lips the minute she's buckled into her highchair. :)
- June is still wearing size 3-6 month clothes, but we could probably start swapping a few things out for larger sizes. (I think she'll continue to wear size 3-6 month pants for awhile.) And, June is still in size 2 diapers, but I think our next purchase will be a size 3. We'll get June's official stats at her doctor appointment later this month, but my guess is that she weighs close to 16 pounds.
