Nice to meet you - An Interview!

Today, Avilee is 6 months old!  We can not believe the time has gone by so fast.  She's an amazing little girl.. such a good baby!!  She is usually always smiling and loves to give hugs around the neck and snuggle.  Some of you have met her, but others have not, so let's do this interview style. I'll let Avi tell you about herself ;)
1.  What is your favorite food?
Well, since I still haven't cut any teeth (I'm trying so hard!!), I stick to my purees and baby oatmeal.  I love banana, peas, peaches, sweet potatoes, mixed veggies and chicken - yes, baby food chicken!!!  Apples, blueberries and pears are okay too.  My favorite is still my milk though... I get to snuggle my mom when I drink milk :)
2.  What do you drive?
I drive a Safety 1st Sound 'n Lights Activity Walker!!  I can make it go backwards and around corners.. somehow!!  My sisters love to help push me around the house.  They take me all over while they are playing so I am not lonely.  It gives my Mom a chance to cook or fold some laundry.  My sisters are SO helpful!
3.  Do you have a favorite quote?
I don't say much yet so I'm not exactly quoting anyone. Yesterday was my first day saying a real word other than my normal babble.. I said Dada!!  I started at around noon and didn't stop all day.. I can even yell it!  Dad loves it - Mom isn't impressed.  She wanted me to say Mama first.  She's pretending to be upset because it makes my Daddy laugh, but she told me she's happy that I am making him smile.
4.  What do you like to do in your free time?
My favorite pass times are drooling and chewing.  I like my toys or my thumb in my mouth. I used to like my sucky but I don't have to have it every day. 
5.  What is your favorite song?
I'm quite partial to the Little Teapot song because my Daddy likes to sing it to me in his silly voice.  He puts me on his lap and helps me make my handle and spout. Then, he tips me over and I laugh hysterically.  My sisters, mom and gramma sing to me too.  I love it!!  I can sing!  I sing when I'm tired mostly.
6.  Who is your best friend?
I haven't spent much time with other babies just yet, but plan to very soon.  Right now, my best friends are my big sisters. I love them both SO much!!  They play with me and sing to me and I am happy as long as I can see them.
7.  Do you have any nicknames?
My family calls me Avi for short.  Dad calls me Squirt.  Mom usually calls me Honey Baby.  Everyone refers to me as Baby Avilee..  I get new nicknames all the time. We are still waiting for one to stick ;)
8.  How big are you?
I'll come back and edit this answer on the 15th after my Well Baby check. Mom put me on the home scale though and I was over 17lbs!!  
UPDATE:  We went to our Well Baby appointment and the power was off :/  I was 16lbs 2oz, 16in head and 26in long.  I had my shots a few days later and did really well!  I did get a small fever, but Mom and Dad had it under control fast and I feel better now.
9.  What is your favorite color?
I love black and hot pink the best!!
10.  Do you have a favorite toy?
Hmm.. I like my Sophie giraffe a lot.  Toys with lights and music excite me too!!  I got my hands on a ball this week too and that was fun until it rolled away from me..
If my toy or blanket has a fabric tag on it, that's the part I like the best.  I love chewing on tags.  I love my hands and feet.  They make great toys.  My toes are silly and I like to study my fingers while they are making pinching motions.
11.  Are you mobile?
Ehh.. not really.  I know how to roll but I don't care to do it very often.  I don't crawl yet.  I can sit up alone when I want to too.  I'd rather just be held though. I'm kind of spoiled!
12. Is there anything else you would like to tell everyone?
I like to take showers.  The water makes me laugh when I stick my hands or face in it.  I like hair bows!  They actually stay in my hair. I have a ton of it too!  I like to be naked and I hate being hot.  I still sleep with my Mom. We are working on the crib thing.. but no matter where I am, my aquarium really helps me fall asleep.
