June Update

Sorry that I haven't updated this in a while.  There has been so many things that have happened, only where to begin....

Well, at Whitley's 6 month doctor's appointment she weighed 13 lbs 3 oz and 24 inches long.  She had another ultrasound to monitor her kidney and we found out that it is the ureter coming into the kidney that is dilated but not causing any damage.  The doctor wants to check it again at her 1 year appointment.  If he thinks she needs it further checked out, he is going to send us to a pediatric urologist in St. Louis.

The week after the doctor's appointment she got her first tooth!  Then she got her second tooth the next week.  It is the 2 on the bottom and is still working them all the way up.  The Saturday before Father's Day she learned to sit herself up!  Of course I missed it the first time she did it.  I was vacuuming the living room and turned around and she was sitting up, but I didn't miss her next milestone.  On Father's Day we all went to my parent's house to work cattle and to see my dad.  Whit was playing with the rocking cow my mom has for the grand kids and she kept wanting to play with the face while standing on it so Kenzie sat her in front of it to play with it and she grabbed a hold of it and just stood up!  Everyone but I think my mom got to see that milestone.  So of course you want to see if it is just a fluke so we sat her down in front of it and she did it again!

She still hasn't started fully crawling.  She will get up on her hands and knees, move her knees forward and then plops on her belly, reaches and then pushes herself forward with her feet.  Yesterday she was really trying and would move her knees then 1 hand and then move her knees again then plop.  She will get it and then we will be in trouble because she is very active and once she learns something that is all she wants to do.

I think that is all I have to update you on for now.  By the way her 6 month pictures came out SOOOOOOOO good!
