books & friends

She's started liking books very much(and eating them).
These are her friends: Eric and Carolina. They are very sweet and patient with Alice, even when she hits and pulls their hair.

Alice loves to play peek-a-boo by holding a sheet or cloth over her eyes, and then taking it off. She's playful and makes very cute gurgles, fake coughs, blows rasperries, says dada and other sounds. She likes to play and suck on toys, and can stay entertained for awhile that way. She's also starting to really get around in the walker and can go forward instead of just backwards. She's started to drink a lot of water in the hot weather, so we got her a baby cup. When we go out even if it's just shopping, we always have to stop a bunch of times so that people can goo goo over her. It's very flattering! I'm sure every mom thinks their baby is the cutest, and I'm no exception.
At 6 and a half months old, she weighed 28 and a half pounds.
