6 Months!


 I'm a little late posting a six months update. That's what happens when  your children are only 19 months apart ;)! Here are some photos and a few things she has been doing.



 




Weight: 21 lbs (98%)
Height: 27 3/4 inches (97%)

Sleeping:
She usually sleeps 10-12 hours eat night
Naps: 3-4 (two short and one long)
She wakes up at 7:00 or 7:30 so I lay her down at: 8:30 or 9:00, 11:00-11:30, 2:30 or 3:00- After she wakes up I just keep her up until 7:00 or 7:30

Eating:
Every 3-4 hours 4-5 times a day (mostly 5 times)
1) I breastfeed her first thing in the morning (7:30)
2) Prunes + rice cereal + 5-6 oz bottle (10:30 or 11:00)
3) Veggie + fruit + 5-6 oz bottle (1:30 or 2:00)
4) This meal is tricky sometimes I feed her two veggies + a 5-6 oz bottle or I feed her a 7-8 oz bottle and feed her an hour or so later to stretch her feedings (she seems to be hungrier during this time of the day so it just depends) (5:00 or 6:00)
5) 8 oz bottle and goes to sleep (7:30- sometimes 7:00 if she's been up a while)

Development:
*She recently got her 1st tooth (she's over 6 1/2 months now-closer to 7 months)! I can't believe it!
*Can roll to her side
*Loves jumping in her Jump and Go
*Can sit up- but still shaky
*Loves grabbing those toes and anything else she can get her hands on- this includes your face :)
