Caroline is now 6 months old. At her most recent visit to the pediatrician, she is keeping up with her off-the-chart growth. She weighed in at 20 pounds 9 ounces, and 27 inches long. She is slowly starting to sleep better, although the past month's travel schedule has led to a (hopefully temporary) setback. She is now eating a good amount of cereal, fruits, and veggies, and true to form, she likes to eat. Check out the first picture below to see how much bigger she is than 6 months ago. Quite a change!
From 5 days old to 5.5 months old!

Interesting expression...

Closeup of her "special" fused lower tooth
But having a"special" tooth doesn't stop her from chewing on leaves
Why such a long face, Caroline...
