Merritt is 6 Months!!!!

November 6th will be Merritt's half birthday! I cannot wrap my head around this at all. She has doubled in size. She'll be weighed next week, but I'm guessing she is over 16 lbs now, a sack of taters! She remains the coolest baby ever. Such a happy girl! We love her :) Here's some video of her from over the weekend:



We are in the process of trying her on new foods. Right now she tries a new food each week. She has been very cooperative and likes sweet potatoes, pears, peaches, peas, squash and applesauce. She also gets cereal twice a day. There's one food she hasn't quite figured out how to eat yet:



Meantime, Merritt had her first Halloween last week...and for those of you not in the know, she had the most unique costume in her daycare class - see if you can tell the difference:







Finally, winter is almost here, and Grammy and Pop-Pop Chaump bought "the bear" (Merritt that is) her first snow suit. It says its for 6-9 months, but I suspect the size is a little off. What do you think?

Oh my goodness...such a good does of the bear in this posting! Thanks so much for all of the updates, I don't know what I'd do without them.
