Zoe is 6 months old!

Zoe Claire turned 6 months old over the weekend. Gotta love this face she made in the first picture. To mark this stage in both their lives, we took Zoe and Zachary to have their portraits taken. Neither one was thrilled, but we did get a few keepers.

Zoe has developed a very sweet personality. She smiles all the time and likes to babble and make raspberries. She enjoys watching Zachary doing all his many activities. Her favorite person is Daddy ... as her face lights up as soon as she sees him. However when hunger sets in of course Mama is her favorite. Can't blame a girl for knowing what she wants. Despite her ever growing cheeks, she is small on the growth charts, so no need to worry that we are over feeding her.

This month we bought Zoe a doorway jumper (as shown here). She is just getting the hang of how it works although Zachary does enjoying "helping her" jump in it. She catches on quickly though and will be jumping high in no time.

This last picture is the only one we took on her real half birthday. We did sing happy half birthday to her in the morning but then had a busy day and never got a chance to take still pictures of her (we did shoot some video). So we wanted to get one shot on her actual half birthday - even if it was her sleeping peacefully in her crib. She is wearing one of her Mama's sleep sacks, her favorite thing to snuggle in at sleep time.
