8:15 AM Good morning! I am 6 months old today! I woke up in such a good mood today! Aunt Sherry and I took Uncle Jason to work, then dropped the cousins off at school. She took me in the gas station after we got gas in the car, and everyone fussed over me. I love being told I'm a pretty girl! By the time we got home, I was ready for my bottle. I'm done burping now, and I am ready for a nap. I like to sleep! I will write more later!

8:45 PM Aunt Sherry took us to the park after the kids got out of school today. I couldn't play on the stuff like Jon and Emmy because I can't sit up yet. But one day soon, I'm gonna swing in the big kid swings! I guess for now I'll have to be happy with my swing at home. Aunt Sherry pulled a green thing off a tree, and I reached for it and tried to get it in my mouth. But Aunt Sherry wouldn't let me eat it. I don't know why, it looked like the green stuff she ate for lunch. When I can walk, I'm going to the park, and when she's not looking, I'm going to eat one!

After we left the park, we picked up Uncle Jason from work and went home. Emily made a pallet on the floor to do her homework and she let me lay there and help her. I tried to eat her pencil, but she wouldn't let me. I just want something to bite on, teething hurts!

We ate dinner, and I got carrots again! I love carrots! I didn't even make a real big mess this time! I'm getting the hang of eating.

After dinner, we all went for a walk. Everyone took turns pushing my stroller. I like going for walks, because everybody talks and laughs. I try to join in the conversation, but I don't think they understand what I'm saying. Give them time, they'll learn.

I took my bath after the walk. I got to play with my new rubber ducky. Wish I could float like that. Rubber ducky let me pick him up and chew on him. Now if the cat would just hold still.......

Well, I've had my bottle, played in my swing for a while, and my eyes hardly want to stay open. I guess it's time for bed. Aunt Sherry just said so. She said "I love you Katy" and I tried to say "I love you too" but it came out ah-goo. Maybe in the morning......
