6 month check up

We just got back from the doctor for Caroline's check up. She weighs 16lbs and is 27 inches long. I forgot to ask about her percentiles but we know she is on track with everything. The shots were horrible (of course) but she seems to be recovering well. It usually takes me longer to get over the shots. :)

Scott's mom came for a visit a couple of weeks ago. We went to Seagrove where they have a lot of pottery stores. The stores are all spread out and you can find some really great things. In the past we have bought bowls, mugs, vases etc. We didn't go into too many shops this time because it was hard getting Caroline in and out of the car, but we still found some cute things. Linda bought Caroline some great toys that she loves to play with!

First football game


Caroline went to the UNC football game this past Saturday and seemed to like it. The loud cheering didn't bother her which is good since we got the full season tickets for basketball this year....and those games can be loud!

I bought her a blue UNC shirt with her name on it and she wore it to the game. Everyone kept calling her a he (which drives me crazy) so we got her a pink shirt at the game. :)

6 months old


I can't believe it has already been 6 months (and one week)! She has grown and changed so much. Caroline is eating food, sitting up really well and almost crawling now. It's crazy to see how much she can move around the room. She gets on her knees and elbows and bounces. Then she pushes forward. We'll have to try and get video of it. It is super cute!

Swinging


We took Caroline to the park last weekend and she loved the swing. My favorite part is watching her little feet move!

Look who is a big girl!

About a week ago Caroline had her first experience sitting in the front of the shopping cart. I can't believe how big she is! She likes her cozy cart cover and loves to look at all of the new people. I bring toys for her to play with while she is in the cart, but she would rather play with the things I am buying. Yesterday she was holding on to a bag of shredded cheese and when we went to pay, the cashier tried to take it, but Caroline was not happy about that! Finally the lady rang up the other bag of cheese twice. :)

Halloween

Well, we didn't go Trick-or-Treating this year and actually, Caroline didn't even stay up long enough to see the kids who came to our door! Despite that, she was the cutest kitty I have ever seen!!
