Ginny's new trick, stinky face :)

6 months (only 5 days late)

Ginny, you are 6 months old!! How can this be? You have two teeth, you sit by yourself for 30 seconds or so before you topple over, you don't really roll (except when you are on your tummy and you don't want to be any longer), you babble constantly, you love to blow raspberries, and play peek-a-boo. Your sister is simultaneously one of your favorite people and the one who can make you scream instantly! You are such an easy going baby and I can't imagine our family without you :)

You weigh 16lbs 3 ounces (49%), you are 26.5 inches tall (75%), and you head circumference is 43.3 centimeters.  Doctor says you are still tall and skinny :)

Pop Pop's Monkey

On mommy's birthday Ginny got a very special present from Pop Pop and Grammy, a monkey that was Pop Pop's when he was a baby.  Aunt Lynn found it in Grandma Bank's things when helping Uncle Dick clean out his house for sale in Cheyenne.  Aunt Lynn sent it to Pop Pop and Grammy, and they had it restored and gifted it to Ginny.  Ginny loved her monkey and it now lives in her nursery :)
