Mattie has had a rough time with a cold. She developed a rash that is not helping her feel any better. We are trying some new medication today so we hope she will be feeling better soon. Here are some pictures from our trip to Hilton Head and Augusta.

Mattie went to look at the ocean while visiting Greatgrandma and Greatgrandpa Bufford in Hilton Head. She enjoyed herself until she got splashed by a wave.

Mattie had her 6month appointment today. She weighs 17lbs14oz, and she is in the 80th percentile for her weight. Mattie is in the 97th percentile for her length at 27 1/4. She is "creeping" now which we call army crawling. She is not too fast yet, but she is loving her new skill. She is very vocal all of the time. Mattie has a lot to say about everything. We can only understand Ma ma.. and ba ba... right now. She loves her music class on Wednesday, and we are going back to swim class this month. Mattie finally decided to kick and splash on the last week of class. Mattie had a great time visiting family this past week. We will post more pictures of that trip later.

Mattie is 6 months old! She has had a busy month. She hates peas and kinda likes sweet potatoes. We are working hard on getting Mattie to sleep through the night. Last night she made it until 5:30. I will definitely take that over the usual 3 night awakenings. Mattie is saying ma ma, ba ba, and maybe da da (hard to tell). She is rolling over both ways not and rocking on her elbows and knees. She is pulling herself around her crib by grabbing the crib sheet and tugging on it. I have seen her do this on the floor but it does not work well for her because her blanket moves.

Matt and Mattie got baptized this past weekend. She did great! She even tugged at Pastor David's beared and she also was trying hard to see the choir behind her.

We are heading out of town tomorrow to visit Pee Paw, Greatgrandma and Greatgrandpa Bufford. We will have many pictures to share when we get back. Poor Puga, she is going to the kennel.
