Mackenzie is 6 months old already! It really is hard to believe how fast time flies, and how quickly they grow. Mackenzie is doing terrific - and she is off the charts developmentally. The Dr was a little irritated that I had already started feeding her solids, but once I explained that she was eating about 40 oz of fluids a day, he seemed ok with it. She is on (2) solids feedings a day, and 5 bottles. Tom and I are really enjoying the reduced bottle washing - as it seems that is the worst part of this stage. She is *almost* sitting on her own. She tends to get so excited that she tips over, or sometimes she is just to lazy, and would rather sit half slumped over :)
Mackenzie is still growing like a weed. I decided to compare the girls at their 6 month appointments, and not surprisingly, Mackenzie outweighed Ellie by a full pound, however, she is 1/2" shorter then Ellie. So she has a stockier build then Ellie did at that age. The head circumfrence is also a bit smaller, but not by much.
Ellie and Mackenzie LOVE each other. We couldn't have asked for a better relationship. Ellie loves to give her kisses and hugs and plays with her with some toys. M just loves to sit and watch her sister. I hope it lasts!
