6 months old

i cannot believe my baby is half a year old! HALF A YEAR! wow. time flies. I feel like the changes between 4 to 6 months have been huge, and to think they will just keep getting bigger.
-She sits up by herself. Sometimes she is still a little tipsy but she does well. She likes to sit up and play now, instead of laying down. She rolls all over the place, every which way but she still prefers to be on her back if she's laying down. She also scoots, usually backwards. 
-She is getting more of a personality and becoming a lot more independent. She will play with her toys by herself and she wants to feed herself with the spoon sometimes. She gets really sensitive sometimes but is usually really happy and easy going.
-She eats rice cereal and for most the past month she's been trying a bunch of different vegetables and fruits. So far carrots and sweet potatoes and peaches have been the favorites. She is a VERY messy eater and she makes the funniest faces. She still LOVES getting her bottle and sometimes she shakes and her eyes get huge when she sees it and it about to get it because she's so excited.
-Great sleeper. Still almost 12 hours at night and about 2 hour nap in the morning, then a shorter one in the afternoon. She loves her crib.
-She loves her mom and dad, and she can usually be coaxed pretty easily to give any one else a good smile. Sometimes she gets a little overwhelmed when we're in a big group of new people and she's being passed around but usually she is ok with a few new people or staying with a babysitter.
-She got sick for her first time, which was the saddest and most pitiful thing ever. I had my ups and downs with it but only lost it a few times. It was just a cold, very stuffy, sore throat, coughing, etc. It took her about 2 weeks to get over it and boy was i glad when she did. She was quite a bit more fussy than normal but mostly she was just sleepy and tired and didn't want to play and i missed my happy girl so much!
-I feel like she has grown SO much this month. She looks and feels huge to me, my arms get tired holding her, although after going to the doctor she is still pretty small for her age.
-Her eyes keep getting darker, a little bit to my dismay. Thy are now a hazel color, brown with blueish/green. Which is still pretty i was just really hoping they would stay light.
-Her hair has gotten lighter since she was born, but is still a medium brown color. It gets really fuzzy/poofy on top. We can now do a mohawk with it after her bath and it's so cute.
-Her Stats: head: 17 (71%) length: 25.5 (42%) weight: 14.2 (17%)
