These 6 months have been nothing like we've known before, between night feeds, poopy diapers, milk spit-ups, doctor's checkups and many other things that we have experienced for the very first time.
How has life changed since then? Well, we've discovered that we can survive with less sleep, for one thing. We have also discovered that we can actually understand baby language; for hunger it's one type of cry, for pain it's a different type, for just plain crankiness it's different again, and the list goes on.
Although the times of doing whatever we like whenever we like are long over, it's a sacrifice we are willing to make to have Hannah in our lives. Like her Daddy said just the other day, she brings us so much joy.
Looking back at the many, many photos we have of her, we couldn't help smiling at how she has changed since 6 months ago today. The pictures below are of when she was born, at 1 month old (with the cap), at 2 months old (with the bib), at 3 months old, 4 months old, 5 months old and one day just shy of 6 months old (with her hair tied in a little pigtail). These are photos which have not been posted before (I think!).
In these 6 months, she has also achieved a few milestones which her Daddy and Mummy are extremely proud of! :)
At 1 1/2 months, she could lift her head, at 3 months she could hold her own bottle, at 3 1/2 months she gave her first big smile, at 4 months she rolled over, at 4 1/2 months she could sit up on her own without any support and at 5 months she had her first solids!
Hannah, Mummy and Daddy love you very much and we are looking forward to the next 6 months (and many more!) with many more happy occasions and milestones to come!
Congratulations to all 3 of you. Well done all round and God Bless you.
