6 months old!

Well everyone, in some ways this has been a long time in coming, and in other way time seems to have flown...Leah is now 6 months old! I thought I would take a time out from posting adventures to give you a little update on the newest Coleman. Leah was born during "pumpkin season" in October and she has been a little spitfire since the moment she made her entrance. She has had some physical issues along the way (that yucky reflux) but she seems to be less bothered by it from day to day. Here are some photos of our little lady.
My baby girl. She has never been much of a snuggler until recently. She is definitely a mommy lover these days. I cannot leave her sight without her melting into fits of sobbing. It is a double edged sword, I am ecstatic that she loves me, but I have so much housework to do! I love her hugs which are becoming more frequent of late. She grabs my hair and buries herself into my neck. So cute!




I am not her only love. She adores her big sister. Her smile looks miles wide when she spies her sis entering the room! The feeling is quite mutual. I am so glad my girls are close at this young age.



Sarah likes to dress Leah up (hat and all). Sarah is quite into dress up these days. Luckily, Leah is a happy participant!



Her newest "trick" is throwing herself back on the boppy, arching her back and smiling, and then "ab crunching" her way back to sitting. Boy, she has strong ab muscles for a 6 month old!
One of her mischievous grins while "crunching".

She loves to laugh. Her favorite game right now is "peek a boo!" Here is the face I get while playing this game. She melts my heart!


She also loves tongues. She loves for me to stick mine out at her, and she loves to stick hers out as well.


She makes her sister laugh with her silly expressions.



Sarah can make her laugh out loud as well during tickling sessions or just yelping in her direction (I am not as fond of the loud yelping game they have created, but am glad they are having fun).

I love the hair! It is getting more curly and long by the day! I had to cut the stringy hairs at the base of her neck, because it was getting in the way when I tried to put on her bib. Once I cut the hair, it instantly looked more curly. She has definitely taken after mommy with the amount of body in her hair. We love our little Leah and can't wait to see what else she has in store for us during the next 6 months!
