Is this the same baby?

Aurelia turned 6 months old yesterday and I turned 29.  Yep, my birthday is Lady Hawk's half birthday.  For my birthday gift, Aurelia only woke up once in the night (best gift ever!).  I feel like a new woman today.  I think I had forgotten what 5 hours of sleep felt like.  And I cannot believe how fast our little love bug is growing up!  It's so hard to think back to that fragile little baby with a very large head in the NICU.  Now she is so full of life and joy!  When I look at old pictures, I can't help but question whether the baby I'm holding is the same baby I'm looking at.  A lot can change in 6 months.  



I can't wait to watch her change and develop more over the next months and years.
