Madelyn had her 6 month appointment today and it went great. She weighs 14 lbs 6 oz (12th percentile) and is 26 in tall (48th percentile). The doctor said that she is tall and skinny! We have the go ahead to start solid foods and tried sweet potatoes for the first time this evening. She absolutely loved them and you can see it in the picture above. I took a video but for some reason it would not upload onto blogger. Madelyn is really starting to be her own person. She's reaching for everything, laughing, loves to play with her toys and watch other kids, and she especially has begun to love our dog Fenway. She smiles every time she sees him and watches his every move. She even thinks it's funny to give him her pacifier. Fenway has eaten so many pacifiers I'm waiting for the day we're going to have to take him to the vet with some sort of blockage in his stomach.
Our goal this week is to make Madelyn's bedtime later. She's been such a sleepyhead at 6 every night that she's been in bed before 6:30. We are going to the SOX/Orioles game next Saturday evening so I'm experimenting with naps to make the bedtime a little later. Today she napped in the morning, early afternoon, and we squeezed in a late afternoon nap and she lasted until 7:30 which is perfect. Madelyn definitely takes after her Daddy who slept non-stop as a baby!!

There's a whole world of food out there, it is so exciting to see her trying it out!
Are her eyes getting a little darker?
She is so cute, I can't wait to see everyone at the game!
