I intended to post this yesterday, but our computer got the best of me. It turns off automatically after 20 minutes of no activity. Unfortunately, YouTube uploading a video without me doing anything to it doesn’t count as “activity,” so it took me a lot longer than expected. I have figured out how to temporarily disable that option, so I finally got this finished.
I can’t believe my baby girl is already 6 months old! She is such a tremendous joy. She is a sweet, happy little soul. I am so thankful for the light she brings into our lives. I will take her to the doctor next week, so I should have new “stats” on her then.
I got a little overzealous with the camera yesterday. I think you will get a laugh out of some of these photos, though, so I am posting all of them.

I don’t know why these are sideways. They are saved correctly on my computer. Blogger won’t allow me to rotate them, so you’ll have to turn your head. 🙂

Re-commence head-tilting:
As expected, I ended up with a bit of help towards the end of the process:
