Shooo, half a year has gone by so quickly. Natalia is almost sitting on her own - she plops over now and then, but her balance is just about there. She also spends much longer on her tummy these days in order to roll over and in preparation for crawling one day. She also started eating butternut this week for dinner and loves it! Today she started eating apple with a tsp of rice cereal for lunch (which also went well) and then she still has plain corn/rice cereal for breakfast. In a week or so I'll start her on plain yoghurt with the apple. Then she also has her 4 bottles a day, which was cut down from 5 on Monday since she's having lunch now. Natalia loves to bath and got a lot of bath toys for Christmas, so now bath-time takes even longer because she has to explore them. She just doesn't want to get out. She hates being dressed and would rather be naked! She's also growing at a rate of knots and some of her 6-12 month clothes are fitting really well........ She also babbles a lot - she's going to be a real chaterbox one day.

I cant believe in just 6 more months, Natalia will be a year old........

Love P x 3
