Where did my little baby go?

Alyssa turned 6 months old yesterday! She seems like such a little lady now and not an infant anymore. I was looking at old pictures yesterday and I can't believe how tiny she used to be. She has her 6 month check up tomorrow so I will get her stats which I always love. Although there will be more shots. Good thing she is so good with them or else I would be a mess since I always have to go alone since Dave can never get off work for them. She has actually thinned out a little bit in the past few weeks. I feel like she goes in waves. She plumps up and then thins out as she grows, although her thinning out is still chubby :).
Tooth #2 is on its way. We had another rough night two nights ago. With the first tooth we had a rough night and then like 2-3 days later the tooth poked through. So I guess the second one should be through in just a few days. You can see the tooth when she smiles now but its still hard to see with the camera. I think the pool of drool that surrounds it gives a glare on the camera or something.
Eating is going better. She ate the squash I made last week, but very reluctantly. So I gave in and started her on fruits. She eats about an inch long piece of banana smashed up. Although I trick her and slip in either squash or peas. She will actually swallow whole bites of peas which is a huge improvement. Today she ate about a tablespoon each of peas and bananas. After we get fruits and veggies down, crackers are apparently next. I'll ask the doctor tomorrow about what kind of crackers and all. How is she already old enough to have teeth and eat crackers?!
