On Friday, May 24, sweet Baby B turned ½ a year old….OH
MY!! She is growing and changing daily!
She weighed in at 15 lbs 4 oz and 25 ¾” long.
Wearing 6 month clothes & size 2 diapers
No teeth yet, but she has been drooling a bunch and chews and gnaws on any and everything!
Rolling all over the room..Paislyn gets soo excited when she
rolls around and says “rolling over Momma” J
Still exclusively breastfed….she takes 6 oz bottles of
breast milk at day-care
She eats a little oatmeal in the evening. My dad brought us a bunch of veggies from his
garden the other day and I was planning on making her some food and starting
with carrots this weekend now that she is 6 months old. Unfortunately, her eczema “exploded” (dr.’s
term) this week and until we can get that under control and figure out what
caused it they advised us to hold off on starting any foods until further
notice. SO, at this time we will just
keep trucking along with the oatmeal.
She is going on the 2nd straight week of sleeping
through the night. PRAISE THE LORD!!! She
was sleeping through the night once upon a time, but for the last month or two
she was religiously waking up around 2-3 am and nursing. Then, she would conveniently fall asleep right
when it was time for me to get up and start the day. That meant my day was starting around 2 or 3
whenever she woke up. That made some
long and tiring days of teaching 40 something kiddos.
She has really started playing with her toys…loves pawing at
them, eating them, rolling them, etc.
She loves jumping in her exersaucer and we are working on
sitting up. She can sit up and does well
until something catches her attention and she turns to look at it and over she
goes. J
She absolutely ADORES Paislyn…I have always heard people say
that and I thought they are just a baby…well it’s true folks. She laughs and smiles at Paislyn more than
anyone else. She follows her with her
eyes everywhere she goes—which is everywhere!
She smiles at her and loves her to interact with her. She belly laughs really hard (it’s adorable!)
at silly things she does. It cracks me
up!
She has started rolling over in her sleep. I freaked when P started doing this and I
would get up every hour at night to check on her and flip her back over. I am definitely WAY more laid back this time
around and when she did it the first night this week I just left her that
way. She has flipped over every night
since. I knew it was only a matter of
time as she LOVED to lay on her side and has been sleeping that way for quite
some time.
Wants to be held and does not like to be put down after you
have been holding her.
She is pushing up all the way with her arms but them little
legs do not yet move when she pushes up.
She is still the sweetest little happy baby! She is definitely my little cuddle-bug and I
love it! Happy half birthday sweet girl!
Mommy, Daddy, & Paislyn love you soo much!!
Oh...here is when the pictures start getting interesting! :)
Look at those cheeks! :)
Her favorite way to sleep!
Sitting so pretty!
