Ivy's 6 months old!

Well, we had a pretty busy week, with work, events and visits with friends. Our friend Greg visited from the Sonoma Coast- and we had a nice walk downtown and lunch together. He and Ivy admired her Tokyo photo album!

On saturday, my mom and I took Ivy to a tutu event at Nordstrom-- kind of geared towards older girls, but that was ok. She was the only baby there- but she had her tutu! This picture of her in the tutu is pretty accurate for how it is with her these days-- everything goes in the mouth! She's teething for sure. Lots of drool... knawing on things and some obvious discomfort at times :(.

Yesterday was her 6 month birthday! We went shopping and got a new toy and also a walking thing... that she isn't quite tall enough for yet. She also tried out a jumping thing this week that hangs from a door way. She approaches each new thing with interest and an open mind, which I'm grateful for! Brian and I celebrated her 1/2 birthday with a steak dinner and some chocolate cake!
