Gemma turned 6 months old on Sunday, September 30th. We celebrated by going to the horse races! It must have been Gemma's good luck, because her unlucky parents actually won $15!
Gemma is growing up too fast! She's crawling everywhere; you can't take your eyes off of her for one second. I learned that the hard way, she somehow got stuck behind the couch! She loves Vito, she chases him all over the house. I don't think she'd be such a good crawler without him! Vito loves her too, he likes to share his bones with her. Gemma has been eating cereal and has just graduated to real food. So far she's eaten avocado, tomato, bananas, and butternut squash. Her favorite is avocado!
It seems like yesterday we were packing up our house in Canada, with only a little bump in my belly. Now we have a silly, beautiful, adventurous baby girl. She is our world, we couldn't imagine life without her! And we look forward to every moment we get to spend with her, loving her, teaching her and watching her grow.
